•

Ensure proposed solutions are technically viable, cost-efficient, and executable by delivery teams.

Project Coordination & Implementation Oversight

•

Serve as the single point of coordination across internal departments for infrastructure build-outs.

•

Manage delivery from solution finalization through implementation, including documentation, resource allocation, and service activation.
