Coordinate gate closures, passenger boarding bridge outages, temporary operating conditions, construction access, security requirements, shutdowns, and related operational mitigations.
Track stakeholder requirements, comments, approvals, decisions, actions, schedules, risks, issues, and decision deadlines.
Prepare regular project reporting and escalate significant risks, conflicts, or decisions requiring leadership involvement.
Support transition into related owner-led interior renovation, tenant improvement, or capital project assignments.
