Present performance, risks, issues and recovery plans; coordinate action owners and follow commitments through to closure. * Monitor contract KPIs, service commitments, capacity and delivery trends. Identify root causes of missed or at-risk performance, drive recovery and continual improvement, and provide accurate reporting and forecasts. * Manage ASP operational performance against agreed delivery, KPI, quality, productivity and safety expectations through regular reviews, escalation and improvement planning. * Apply cost and delivery-model awareness to resource planning and operational decisions. Identify efficiency opportunities without compromising safety, service quality or contractual obligations; escalate scope, cost and delivery risks through the appropriate channels. * Set priorities and accountability across teams and partners; coach teams and coordinate effectively with service delivery, reliability, network operations and other stakeholders. * Expected outcomes include safe delivery to contract, visible and actively managed KPIs, timely recovery from service issues, effective customer and ASP governance, improved operational efficiency, and fewer recurring issues.
