Should you be implementing in the waterfall domain, you will be expected to execute those projects following NSPI’s Portfolio & Project Management (PPM) framework (based on PMI’s PMBOK). You will take the lead and provide leadership to your teams for the five phases of initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control, and closeout following our technology governance processes.
