• Mission Needs Assessment: Partner with mission organizations, facility operations, and technical directorates to understand evolving capability requirements, assess infrastructure adequacy, identify capability gaps, and translate mission needs into fundable project concepts aligned with appropriate funding vehicles;
• Strategic Planning & Budget Formulation: Support WIPO leadership in multi-year strategic planning, annual operating plan development, and federal budget formulation processes, including preparation of funding justifications, project data sheets, and budget submissions;
• Federal Interfaces: Interface, as appropriate, with the Los Alamos field office (NA-LA), the Office of Infrastructure, Office of Acquisition and Project Management, and other NNSA organizations to communicate funding strategies, negotiate resource allocations, support budget reviews, and ensure alignment with federal priorities and policies;
• Performance Monitoring & Portfolio Health: Establish and maintain portfolio-level performance metrics, tracking systems, and dashboards that provide visibility into funding execution, project performance, portfolio health, and resource utilization across WIPO programs;
• Stakeholder Coordination: Facilitate coordination among diverse stakeholders including funding sponsors, mission organizations, facility operators, environmental management, executing organizations, and WIPO program managers to build consensus, resolve conflicts, and drive integrated solutions;
• Change Management & Adaptive Planning: Implement agile portfolio management practices that enable rapid response to changing mission priorities, emergent needs, funding opportunities, and execution challenges while maintaining portfolio stability and fiscal discipline.
