• Prepare functional specifications for custom developments (forms, interfaces, enhancements) and coordinate with ABAP/technical teams.
• Drive SIT/UAT cycles, prepare test scripts, and manage defect resolution.
• Support data migration activities (e.g., BOMs, routings, inspection plans, open production orders) using tools like LTMC/LTMOM or Migration Cockpit.
• Support cutover activities and hypercare post go-live.
