- Review the engineering deliverables in view of the NG technical specifications, standards, and stage-gate requirements.

- Coordinate the management of design risks and opportunities, ensuring integration with the Project Risk Register.

- Provide concise reporting to the Project leadership on interface status, emerging risks, and required interventions.
