Key Roles and Responsibilities

Decision Intelligence Strategy Support & Program Delivery

• Contribute to the development and refinement of the GSC Decision Intelligence roadmap for assigned programs, ensuring alignment to department priorities, business value, and senior leadership direction.
• Identify, prioritize, and model selected critical and repeatable decisions within assigned business areas, clarifying decision inputs, owners, escalation paths, timing, business rules, and outcome measures.
• Support creation of decision inventories, playbooks, and reusable methods that help teams make decisions more explicitly, consistently, and transparently.
• Track progress, risks, dependencies, milestones, and benefits for assigned Decision Intelligence initiatives and escalated issues through appropriate governance.

Decision Intelligence Tools & Technology Enablement

• Evaluate and pilot approved tools or methods that support decision intelligence within assigned programs, including advanced analytics, scenario modeling, optimization, digital twins, process intelligence, and AI-enabled decision support.
• Partner with IT/Digital and business SMEs to translate decision needs into practical technology requirements, user workflows, adoption needs, and value measures.
• Use process intelligence and analytics insights to understand how decisions are made today, where bottlenecks or quality issues exist, and where improvements may be needed.
• Contribute lessons learned from pilots and implementations to inform broader capability standards and future roadmap input.

Integration with AI, Data & Process Capabilities

• Partner with AI, data, process, and digital teams to ensure assigned decision intelligence use cases are supported by appropriate data foundations, business rules, process context, and analytical methods.
• Feed decision requirements into data quality priorities, data model discussions, process design, and AI use case planning where relevant.
• Help ensure decision points, business rules, and escalation paths are embedded into process models, operating rhythms, and user guidance for assigned areas.
• Support human-in-the-loop expectations and practical controls for AI-assisted or automated decision support.

Decision Governance, Quality & Trust

• Support governance approaches for assigned decision intelligence initiatives, ensuring transparency, accountability, explainability, auditability, data integrity, and compliance expectations are considered.
• Define and monitor KPIs for decision quality, timeliness, adoption, and outcomes at program or department level.
• Document assumptions, risks, decision logic, and escalation needs for priority decision models and tools.
• Coordinate issue resolution and improvement actions where decision performance, user adoption, or governance gaps are identified.

Adoption, Enablement & Stakeholder Leadership

• Develop training content, decision playbooks, communications, demos, and adoption support to embed decision-centric ways of working into assigned teams and operating rhythms.
• Lead defined project teams or workstreams, coordinating cross-functional contributors and influencing stakeholders at program, department, or sub-function level.
• Communicate progress, risks, value, and decisions needed in a clear, executive-ready manner.
• Manage vendor or external SME input where needed for project execution, method validation, issue resolution, or knowledge transfer, without positioning the role as the external industry authority.
