• Extract and organize information from platforms such as Coupa, ServiceNow, finance applications, and spreadsheet-based workbooks for operational analysis.
• Develop reports, summaries, and Excel-based analyses that highlight renewal status, spend patterns, contract risks, and vendor trends.
• Support procure-to-pay and vendor lifecycle processes by identifying gaps in documentation, data alignment, and process visibility.
• Collaborate with external vendors and internal business partners to validate contract details, resolve discrepancies, and improve record completeness.
