• Provide delivery oversight for enterprise GIS platforms and spatial data integration and automation solutions.
• Review and approve technical delivery plans, including sequencing of data integration, validation, publishing, and release activities.
• Define acceptance criteria and ensure deliverables meet business requirements, quality standards, and operational expectations.
• Act as the primary GIS delivery liaison between land management teams, environmental stakeholders, design teams, and external service providers.
• Translate business needs into clear, actionable delivery plans for technical teams.

• Promote scalable, repeatable, and auditable GIS delivery practices across projects.
