About the Role: 

Program Managers (PMs) and Product Support Managers (PSMs) utilize Independent Logistics Assessments (ILAs) to ensure system design and product support performance are integrated to achieve sustainment objectives and identify corrective actions needed to prevent degraded material readiness or O&S cost growth. The Integrated Logistics Assessor supports the analysis of a program’s product support strategy and provides an assessment of how well this strategy will lead to successfully fielding, operating, and sustaining a system at an affordable cost. As part of the ILA, statutory, regulatory, and Component-required documentation is reviewed and assessed for completeness and compliance before the acquisition decision point or Milestone (MS) decision. The focus is on product support outcomes as identified by the product support strategy, as well as identifying features that are likely to drive future operating and support costs, changes to system design that could reduce these costs, and effective strategies for managing these costs through a comprehensive review of the 12 Integrated Product Support (IPS) elements, along with Product Support Budgeting and Funding, and Environmental Safety and Occupational Health.
