Project Engineers (PEs) provide engineering support to the Program(s), leveraging their knowledge of operations and their network of operations contacts, in order to facilitate alignment of needs and resources of both operations and the program office. PEs communicate between the Program engineers and the manufacturing engineers (MEs) when the program needs to make a change to the Technical Data Package, and operations will need to make a corresponding change to the Manufacturing Data Package, aligning effectivity constraints and timing. The PE also assists the POM in communicating CDRL requirements, program tasks and objectives, projects, etc. to the operations MEs; and provides input to the program office regarding operations capabilities and constraints. The PE also provides engineering/technical input to EACs, ERBs, CCB, etc.
