• Continuously assess portfolio performance, market dynamics, contracting opportunities, channel strategies, and competitive trends to identify opportunities to extend value, drive growth, and improve business outcomes.

• Establish portfolio priorities and direct resource allocation across the PAVE portfolio, focusing investments and effort on the highest-impact opportunities while balancing risk, return, and organizational capacity.
