This group is responsible for the review of ship diagrams, disclosures, and liabilities to identify configuration worthy items throughout the COLUMBIA platform. The team generates and documents configuration status accounting records for each configuration worthy item in Teamcenter which are then delivered to government databases. This supports the delivery of life-cycle logistics products throughout the design and construction phase, and also enables EB and the Navy to track ships’ configuration throughout the lifecycle.

The candidate will be responsible for the technical analysis of systems, assemblies, and components in support of establishing and maintaining the correct configuration breakdown.
