• Maintain account-level financial models and rolling forecasts.
• Track budget variances against contractual caps and thresholds (e.g., budget challenge provisions, overrun caps).

Vendor & Passthrough Cost Management

• Track vendor invoices across OEM vendors, soft-service contractors, utilities, and water treatment; ensure proper coding to correct projects.

• Coordinate with Vendor Management on vendor onboarding, PO creation, and AP processing.
• Maintain organized documentation for contracts, change orders, and purchase orders.
• Track vendor rebate obligations and ensure proper reconciliation and reporting to the client.
