• The framework for enabling AI/ML in the R&M domain 
• Key activities for implementing, assessing, and iterating AI as part of the R&M domain 
• The importance of data storage for enhancement to R&M using AI 
• The usage of the Systems Engineering model to address R&M engineering considerations during the DoD acquisition process. 
• Use of AI in R&M Engineering Activities 
• How to assess that an AI enabled system is reliable 
• Challenges for applying AI in R&M Engineering
