  • Maintain and update projects performance dialogue boards; ensure the completeness and reliability of projects data and coherency from different sources.
  • Monitoring projects performance to ensure excellence and adherence to specified deadlines.
  • Facilitate project managers to create and maintain projects documentation.
  • Actively review project schedules. Proactively ask questions when elements of the schedule are not clear, and develop confidence that you understand the schedule well enough to track progress and proactively identify deviations from the plan.
