• Structured processes for tracking and resolving safety-related issues and release blockers before they impact timelines
• Strong supplier and cross-functional alignment to ensure technical compliance across all release touchpoints
• Audit-ready documentation and configuration management practices that hold up under regulatory scrutiny
• Launch readiness processes that give teams confidence when a product goes into the field
