  • Assist TEV organizations with SharePoint team site creation, content updates, site reviews, and permissions audits.
  • Develop use-cases and utilize AI tools (e.g., Joulix, EnerGPT) to identify inconsistencies or redundancies across multiple standards and specifications concurrently, standardizing glossaries, definitions, acronyms, and identifying archive opportunities.
  • Mark and maintain all official records, files, emails, and filing systems in accordance with compliance requirements, including Information Security/Protection (INFOSEC/INFOPRO) and Information Governance & Lifecycle Management (IGLM) standards. Review official records to support internal and external auditing readiness.
  • Download appropriate documentation to ProjectWise for use by internal personnel and contractors; verify that files in ProjectWise remain synchronized with primary files in SharePoint.
