  • Oversee the analysis and validation of invoiced costs, leveraging project baselines, work breakdown structures, and risk tiers to develop payment recommendations.
  • Develop explicit, data-driven briefing materials, reports, and decision support documents for client leadership, interagency partners, and public communication.
  • Lead the assessment of performance and continuation applications to ensure alignment with technical objectives, timelines, and commercialization potential.
  • Develop and evaluate Stage Gate/Go-NoGo processes for applicants proceeding to the next budget period.
