Help with requirements gathering, change requests, and lightweight documentation (briefs, PRDs, RACI).
Monitor budgets and resource plans (basic burn-up/down, capacity view) and flag variances early.
Support risk management: identify risks, propose mitigations, and track owners to closure.
Assist with vendor coordination (SOWs, deliverables, acceptance criteria) where relevant.
