(including design and engineering) aspects of the TOC, including:

design inputs, influence constructability, methods, sequencing, and
interfaces
o TOC Readiness: Lead technical readiness reviews, assess design
maturity, completeness, risks, and gaps, Coordinate reviewers, actions,
and technical recommendations
o TOC Assurance: Coordinate technical assurance through draft and
final TOC development, support technical settlement and final
certification (LoD0), ensure evidence is complete, proportionate, and
aligned to submission needs
• Support TOC progression, including readiness reviews and final submission.
• Provide structured assurance of technical maturity, completeness, and risk
visibility to enable robust TOC outcomes.
