Ensure all ITC-facing communications — from McKesson enterprise project teams — are translated, contextualized, and proactively distributed through appropriate channels before ITCs are impacted.
Maintain the US Oncology IT Operational Readiness Calendar by consolidating inputs into a forward-looking schedule of compliance deadlines, security initiatives, infrastructure projects, change freeze periods, and platform migrations impacting US Oncology practices
Support planning coordination with McKesson enterprise teams (Telecom, Network, Cyber, Endpoints, Cloud) by communicating US Oncology operational constraints and practice calendars for consideration in BU project timelines
Coordinate quarterly CMDB/LeanIX audit activities with enterprise platform owners by defining the data request, tracking responses, surfacing gaps, and ensuring remediation actions are assigned to and completed by record owners
