• Scheduling the required design and development tasks in coordination with Project Management.



• Assigning responsibility for implementation of required tasks to qualified personnel, ensuring they're equipped with the necessary resources.



• Defining test procedures and methods appropriate to each design and development stage.



• Defining control, organization and technical interfaces between appropriate departments and with the customer.



• Establishing a design schedule that includes design review activity and periodic updates as the design progresses.
