• User Acceptance Testing (UAT) & Change Management: Define UAT criteria, lead business validation, and drive the rollout of new capabilities, including training documentation for end-users.
• Performance & ROI Analysis
• Value Tracking: Define and track Adobe-specific KPIs (e.g., Increase in content velocity via AEM, Lift in conversion via Adobe Target, Reduction in manual data entry).
• Utilization Audits: Regularly analyze Adobe platform usage to identify shelfware, optimize license costs, and ensure adoption.
