Prepare and deliver reports, briefings, and decision-support products that accurately convey findings, limitations, and recommendations to Government leadership.
Provide consultation to supported units and POTFF staff on opportunities and methods for capturing data on POTFF programs and initiatives, and on the interpretation of analytical products.
Coordinate with the USSOCOM Enterprise Data Team and other Government data organizations on data access, standards, and shared platforms, as directed by the Government.
