  • Determine the roles & responsibilities between Technology Procurement & Vendor Management and stakeholders within T&T; this will involve an assessment of complexity, existing intellectual property, risk, legal requirements, budget ownership and other relevant factors
  • Interpret T&C's, resolve vendor disputes that have been escalated or are of a systematic or strategic nature and work with T&T Domains to resolve supplier performance and governance issues & coordinate development and tracking of improvement plans, if required
