Performance Metrics: Establish and manage KPIs, CSAT goals, and enterprise dashboards (e.g., Xtraction) to evaluate system efficiency and compliance.
Escalation & Communication: Implement graduated notification ladders (50%/75%/90% thresholds) to prevent SLA breaches and provide direct operational updates to command leadership.

Compliance, Risk, & Incident Response:

Cybersecurity & IA Alignment: Ensure operational compliance with DoD IA, FedRAMP, NIST RMF, DISA STIGs, and CTO directives.
Security Integration: Coordinate vulnerability scanning, threat monitoring, and rapid patching cycles to maintain a robust defensive security posture.
