    • Maintenance escalation (cracking issues and repetitive inspections).

    • Interchangeability issues.

  • Collaborate transversally: Develop a strong partnership with the Customer Services team and the Chief Engineer's team to clarify and materialize market expectations.

  • Manage risks and performance: Proactively identify execution risks, develop contingency plans, and ensure rigorous monitoring of compliance with plans (time, cost, quality).
