Develop and execute a comprehensive strategic plan for Delivery Acceleration, focusing on partner ecosystem scaling, AI-driven process modernization, and customer health risk mitigation across AMS.
Partner with A&M leadership to operationalize AI-powered delivery capabilities (Auctor, AXIS agents, Config Agent, Engage Central) into standard delivery methodology—tracking adoption, capturing feedback, and feeding insights into A&M product roadmap decisions.
Drive time-to-value compression from 200 to under 100 days through adoption of intelligent delivery tools, process optimization, and delivery team capability building.
Monitor and manage key operational metrics—TTV reduction, adoption rates, CSAT investment ROI, partner quality/spend performance—using insights to drive continuous improvement.
Customer Health Assurance & Risk Mitigation
Lead the Customer Health Assurance function to proactively identify and mitigate downsell/loss (D&L) risk through product adoption monitoring, delivery quality oversight, and targeted intervention strategies.
Establish and scale delivery quality governance, ensuring our customer satisfaction scores reflect world-class execution and rapid resolution of delivery blockers.
Manage CSAT investment programs—to recover at-risk projects and restore customer confidence, working closely with Sales, CEG Major Areas, and Delivery teams.
Partner Delivery Management & Ecosystem Scaling
Lead the transition of our partner delivery model, coordinating with global Partner Management and regional delivery teams to scale capacity while maintaining quality.
Establish partner delivery quality standards, performance tracking, and accountability mechanisms aligned with global spend commitments and service-level expectations.
Build and maintain strong partner relationships, coaching partners on A&M adoption, delivery methodologies, and quality expectations.
AI Delivery Acceleration & Adoption Velocity
Partner with A&M leadership to drive adoption of intelligent delivery tools into day-to-day project execution, ensuring teams are trained, tooling is operationalized, and barriers to adoption are systematically removed.
Establish feedback loops to capture adoption insights, deployment blockers, and customer outcomes—synthesizing learning into actionable input for A&M roadmap prioritization.
Lead continuous improvement initiatives to optimize delivery processes, staffing models, and offshore/nearshore delivery mix in support of time-to-value reduction and quality goals.
Business Transformation Solution Architects
Lead the BTSA team to support Sales on large, complex ES and Integrated Success deals across AMS verticals—driving rigorous scoping, delivery readiness assessment, and partner readiness alignment.
Ensure BTSA engagement with Sales occurs early in the deal cycle, de-risking large opportunities and establishing clear delivery expectations with customers and partners.
Work closely with Partner Delivery Management to align 360 partner capabilities with deal scope and customer requirements.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Mentoring
