    Toolset Evaluation: Assess and recommend the use of planning and analysis tools to advance the efficiency and accuracy of distribution system planning.
    Stakeholder Engagement: Engage with statewide and community stakeholders, including regulatory bodies, local governments, community-based organizations, and utility partners. Gather input, address concerns, and promote advancements in distribution planning practices.
    Collaboration: Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including operations, field engineering, area planning, grid modernization, wildfire mitigation, investment delivery, asset management, customer and community solutions, regulatory, and external stakeholders. Ensure alignment with the company's objectives and adherence to industry standards.
    Regulatory Compliance: Stay up to date with regulatory changes and requirements related to distribution system planning and make necessary adjustments to ensure compliance.
