* Eliciting and deriving support requirements and proposing verification methods for requirements.

* Developing supportability cases and conducting analyses to provide progressive assurance of support solutions.

* Performing reliability modelling and undertaking maintainability analysis to optimize support arrangements.

* Assessing the human element of systems, including assessing the potential for human error as a contributor to system failures.

* Assisting with the identification and mitigation of hazards through system hazard analysis.

* Formulating and implementing the obsolescence strategy for a product line.
