• Support steering forums by preparing inputs, updates, and requirement summaries.
• Ensure requirements from all impacted units (including Partner Management teams) are captured — as highlighted in CLM programme discussions.  

6. Testing, Validation & Deployment Support

• Support SIT, UAT, data migration testing, and business readiness.
• Validate process changes, integrations, and CLM workflows with SMEs.
