Coordinate business validation/UAT activities (test planning, user/SME scheduling, defect logging and triage with IT, sign-off tracking) and ensure business acceptance criteria are met for assigned scope.
Drive adoption and value routines post go-live: usage monitoring, action closure follow-up, KPI movement tracking, and escalation of adoption risks/issues through CI governance.
