• Drives accountability across budget owners, Project Controls, Accounting, and the IFS/data team for input quality and timeliness — defining required templates and checks, confirming owners and ETAs, and escalating slippage.
• Defines the coming year’s reporting structure (SG&A and indirect-COGS cost centers, F&E charging, and allocations) during planning, implements it with Accounting, and holds it fixed for the year.
