 * Translate operational transport processes into functional system solutions
 * Support system implementations, upgrades and continuous improvements
 * Test new functionalities and support User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
 * Build reports and analyse transport data
 * Work with vendors and development teams to deliver system enhancements
 * Provide training and guidance to business users and support teams
