Provide design advisory support to footprint expansion, relocation, and optimization initiatives.
Rapidly iterate layout options to support decision-making, feasibility analysis, and cost optimization.

Conduct on‑site reviews of space conditions and AutoCAD accuracy to validate assumptions and determine whether projects can be supported internally by the Business Project team.
Support an enterprise initiative to define, measure, and standardize cold chain and ambient drug storage capacity.
Translate physical layouts into measurable capacity metrics used for planning and investment decisions.
Partner with cross-functional stakeholders including Business Project Directors, Real Estate, Pharmacy Operations, Engineering, IT, Security, and Facilities.
