  • Coordinate with dashboard and reporting personnel to ensure executive reporting reflects current risks, blockers, and decisions needed.
  • Identify gaps between reported schedule status and the underlying evidence, dependency status, or resource assumptions.
  • Help categorize and prioritize risks by impact, urgency, ownership, dependency, and need for client action.
  • Track mitigation actions, due dates, closure evidence, acceptance status, and escalation paths.
  • Support governance meetings by preparing risk summaries, decision points, action updates, and issue-resolution materials.
  • Maintain repository discipline and ensure risk, dependency, and feasibility artifacts are traceable to approved source information.
  • Support transition and knowledge-management activities by documenting current risk registers, known blockers, open decisions, unresolved dependencies, and recurring reporting needs.
