Work with construction partners and field operations to ensure timely installation readiness and contractor support.
Monitor inventory locations and recommend capital asset reallocation to maximize cost avoidance.
Oversee shipping, rigging, and storage logistics for major equipment deliveries.
Ensure data integrity across procurement and scheduling systems through documentation, audits, and continuous improvement.
Develop playbooks, training materials, and business process documentation in collaboration with internal stakeholders.
Lead digital transformation initiatives to automate and streamline planning and procurement workflows.
Define and monitor supplier KPIs, SLAs, and business review cadences (weekly check-ins, QBRs, performance improvement plans).
Build strong relationships with external suppliers and internal stakeholders to ensure transparency, alignment, and accountability.
Support change management activities for project updates, escalation resolution, and budgetary realignments.

Strong understanding of data center construction and critical MEP categories.
Skilled in contract negotiations, supplier management, risk mitigation, and cross-functional coordination.
