  3. Assist in the preparation of solicitations for research projects to develop and manufacture respiratory devices, from masks to ventilators, and other medical devices and diagnostics in support of DHHS requirements.
  4. Understand regulatory implications of technologies and assist the Project Manager and contracted manufacturer in developing a feasible and economical regulatory path with acceptable risk.
  5. Assist in the development of project plans – task to schedule and then monitor progress periodically for compliance.
  6. Assist in the management of contracts to include assessment of contracted device manufacturer progress, technology or schedule risk identifications, and resolution recommendations.
