Reporting – measure and report release progress, quality and outcomes to AMS leadership and DTP governance.
Project Ownership – lead technical integration projects end to end, accountable for delivering outcomes on time, within budget and to agreed quality standards.
Integration Approach & Architecture Alignment – work with architects, the MSP and system integrators to confirm integration scope, interfaces, data flows, dependencies and technical design before build begins.
Environments, Testing & Cutover – coordinate environment readiness, integration, end-to-end and user acceptance testing, data migration and cutover activities, including go-live readiness and hypercare.
Technical Risk & Dependency Management – proactively identify, track and resolve technical risks, issues and cross-project dependencies, and escalate where needed.
Initiation & Planning – develop the project charter, scope statement, work breakdown structure, integrated schedule, resource plan and budget; obtain required approvals.
Scope & Change Control – manage scope, requirements and change requests through a defined change control process, assessing impacts on schedule, cost and risk.
Schedule, Budget & Resource Management – monitor progress against baselines, forecast variances, manage resource allocation and take corrective action as required.
Risk, Issue & Decision Management – maintain RAID logs, define mitigation plans and drive timely decisions with accountable owners.
Vendor & Contract Management – manage vendor deliverables, performance and invoicing against statements of work, ensuring accountability across MSP and third-party partners.
Quality Management – define acceptance criteria and quality checkpoints, and ensure deliverables are reviewed and signed off before stage-gate progression.
Stakeholder Engagement – maintain a stakeholder and communications plan, run regular project meetings and keep business and technical stakeholders aligned.
Status Reporting – provide regular status, financial and risk reporting to the DTP Lead and DTP governance forums.
Alignment with Release Management – align project plans and deliverables with the integrated release calendar, CAB and release readiness requirements.
Project Closure & Lessons Learned – complete handover to AMS and operations, confirm documentation and knowledge transfer, close out contracts and capture lessons learned for continuous improvement.
