• Work with team leads to capture regular updates to forecasted costs.
• Ensure spend-plan data is properly aggregated and ingested into the Power BI data model, enabling cross-project visibility into labor allocation and planned-versus-actual expenditure rates.
• Support command-level data calls by providing information related to obligation authority, projected monthly expenditures, and carryover projections.
• Support service PR actions by providing the NWA and funding-document information required to award contract modifications.
• Help maintain effective communication between teams and leadership, ensuring issues and relevant information move in both directions.
• Perform other duties as assigned.
