· Coordinate preliminary cost, schedule, resource, and feasibility estimates with IT delivery teams, architecture, security, vendors, consultants, procurement, finance, and business stakeholders.
· Analyze alternatives, risks, benefits, dependencies, procurement needs, policy impacts, technical constraints, and cross-system impacts; recommend whether demand should become a project, remain operational work, be bundled, deferred, sequenced, or declined.
· Use Qlik dashboards, ServiceNow reporting, AI tools and related data sources to monitor demand volume, pipeline status, estimate maturity, business activity, resource implications, and conversion to approved projects.
· Provide demand reporting and leadership updates on trends, bottlenecks, recurring needs, prioritization risks, OCM concerns, process gaps, resource implications, and required decisions; maintain data quality for demand records, requirements, maps, estimates, and assessment outputs.
· Manage the BRM unit, including supervision, performance management, delegation, work product review, coaching, staff development, and oversight of long-term consultants performing BRM, business analysis, process mapping, requirements, and demand assessment work.
· Build BRM capability through mentoring, standards, stakeholder engagement practices, tool adoption, training, AI-enabled automation, dashboard improvements, intake workflow improvements, and continuous improvement.
