What is an obsolescence management?

An Obsolescence Management job involves identifying and mitigating risks associated with outdated or discontinued components, materials, or technologies in a company's products or processes. Professionals in this role monitor supply chains, assess potential obsolescence issues, and develop strategies such as component substitution, redesign, or last-time buys.

These abilities are crucial for identifying risks, minimizing costly disruptions, and ensuring continuity in mission-critical operations.
