Facilitate the hand off of builds to the QA and release teams.
Break down new features into tasks and track through to completion.
Group features and bug fixes into releases.
Assess and update estimates and risks associated with delivery.
Stay in constant contact with the team and partner studios to ensure progress along the way.
Ensure the team addresses any outstanding questions which might slow down their progress.
Document new features, processes, requirements and tools.
Set up and monitor feature rollout metrics.
