• Review project time records and applicable invoices for accuracy; communicate budget status and support change-order or work-stoppage decisions when scope or funding requires action.
• Conduct system administration training and product demonstrations for new and existing clients; contribute to training materials and videos.

• Travel as needed and perform other related duties as assigned.
