Responsibilities

Partner with delivery teams across each project to oversee Features, Epics, Stories, and Backlog, ensuring alignment with the Primavera P6 schedule and deliverables.
Establish monthly PI Planning to support the monthly increment and commitment of work (Sprint-based planning is acceptable if it serves that intent).

Research, identify, and prepare all required gating artifacts for each project’s next Gate.
Work with project SMEs to develop estimates needed for each Gate.
Use the project controls template and/or support provided via PGO-D for estimating and reporting.
Develop the Scope Baseline for each project and maintain scope management and tracking templates (including installs of assets, licenses, or process project scope completions).
Support monthly forecasting and reporting, including:
- Scope management: tools for each project with monthly updates.
- Schedule forecast: JIRA progress updates tied to P6, plus P6 milestone achievement and forecasting.
- Cost forecast: labor forecasting support using SME inputs, and invoicing forecasting updates (review outstanding or planned invoicing).
- Risk register updates using Active Risk Manager/ARM (SWORD, now Riskonnect).
- Variance explanations and tracking.
- Monthly reporting at both the individual project and program level (Financial KPIs, Milestones, Issues, Risks, Dependencies, Impediments).
- Weekly status reporting (4-blocker).
Support the Change Manager with planned activities, stakeholder analysis and updates, and communications for project and program change management needs, including building communication collateral.
