• Review and validate engineering and maintenance data to ensure alignment with plant configuration and operational requirements.
• Support the development and implementation of standard asset management structures, naming conventions and data governance arrangements.
• Collaborate with programme teams, system integrators and technical specialists to ensure site requirements are understood and incorporated into the solution.
• Support site readiness activities for data migration, testing and deployment.
• Coordinate site-based reviews to ensure migrated records meet operational and maintenance requirements.
• Support users through changes to processes, data structures and ways of working.
• Provide post-migration support to resolve issues and drive continual improvement in data quality and system adoption.
• Undertake checking activities as part of data and information governance for migratable data.
