• Address ad-hoc requests, user questions/issues, and ensure adequate communications.
• Partner with GP users to complete due diligence activities designed to ensure data and system integrity for all pricing calculations.
• Maintain current level of knowledge and expertise on all Government pricing regulations including legislative and regulatory developments that may impact J&J Operating Companies.
• Share and disseminate knowledge to Government Pricing Analytics department associates to ensure ongoing learning.
