  • Mitigate delivery quality risks during proposal development, during contracting, at engagement startup, and throughout service delivery for Operate engagements.
  • Ongoing and Post-Execution Risk Management and Contracting Support
  • Assist with ongoing contracting, risk management, and mitigation support for ongoing contracting requirements - SOWs, Change Orders, amendments, and renewals.
  • Facilitate continued compliance with contractually required policies and processes, non-standard obligations and restrictions, and with the Firm's internal policies.
  • Provide coaching, guidance, and mitigation suggestions through the engagement lifecycle to Business leaders on critical risk and quality issues.
  • Knowledge Management and Training Support
  • Drive creation of reusable artifacts and templates, including checklists, modular contract language, and recommended internal processes related to Operate-specific services.
  • Support strategic initiatives pertaining to development / updating of processes, tools, and templates to improve overall risk management and contracting practices and to help drive adoption of such processes, tools, and templates.
