• Designing and configuring standardized project templates and associated workflows to drive consistent execution and reporting.
• Implementing Control Center for automated project creation, change management, resource planning, and project archiving at scale.
• Implementing Data Shuttle to automate data movement and syncing between Smartsheet assets and source/target systems, reducing manual data entry and enabling aligned metrics.
• Configuring real-time dashboards that provide executive and operational visibility into portfolio health, status, risk, and progress against strategic priorities.
