• Lead development and execution of the Transition-In and Transition-Out Plans, including personnel shadowing, knowledge transfer, inventory and documentation turnover, and ensuring no degradation of service during transition periods.
• Establish and maintain the Quality Control Plan (QCP) and associated performance management processes to meet QASP metrics (e.g., RMF/eMASS update timeliness, vulnerability remediation windows, Tier 1 responsiveness, COMSEC reporting).
• Identify issues, risks, and performance shortfalls early; develop and implement corrective action plans; and routinely brief AMC leadership (e.g., G-2, AMIS-IN/SE/SEP, P-ISSM, AO) on status, risk posture, and mission impacts.
