- Use approved AI tools to accelerate requirement drafting, stakeholder synthesis, user story refinement, gap analysis, and process documentation.
- Use AI-supported data analysis to identify trends, anomalies, candidate/client workflow pain points, operational bottlenecks, or reporting insights.
- Analyze current-state processes and recommend future-state improvements that improve efficiency, candidate/client experience, operational quality, scalability, or data consistency.
