• Prepare initial internal estimates and help define OEM counter-positions in collaboration with Internal Audit and subject-matter experts.
• Analyze historical settlement patterns, precedent details, and supplier behavior to inform strategic direction.
• Collaborate with Internal Audit to gather evidence, validate costs, and build should-cost analyses.
• Maintain consistency among audit conclusions, financial exposure caps, and the negotiated strategy.
• Model settlement scenarios, evaluate payment timing options, and assess their impact on P&L and cash flow.
• Support leadership and Steer-Co reporting on claim progress, risks, and financial impact.
• Review closing documentation for settlements, side agreements, and audit closure memos to ensure approvals are reflected.
• Support post-settlement activities including finance handover, payment tracking, and archiving of records.
• Support rollout and ongoing improvement of the target claims management and audit process.
