  • Advocate for and communicate available IT services, platforms (e.g., low-code / no-code), and self-service capabilities.

    • Solution Sourcing

  • Guide business leaders in selecting appropriate solution sources—internal, external, or hybrid—and ensure formal evaluation processes are followed.

    • Operational Excellence

  • Partner with enterprise architecture and cybersecurity teams to ensure scalable, secure, and compliant solutions.
