* What Program and Project Management contributes to Cardinal Health
* Transformation enables the organization to drive complex and transformational programs through disciplined project/program management and change management strategies.

Program & Project Management applies general business knowledge to plan, organize, and control resources, procedures, and timing for an administrative or business process. This job family organizes project teams, establishes project schedules and individual responsibilities, and determines resource requirements.  Program & Project Management manages project budgets and reports on the status of project cost, timing and staffing. This job family also ensures adherence to internal external quality standards and integrates vendor tasks and deliverables into project plans.##

* Responsibilities
* * Author comprehensive project charters and scoping documents for new and emerging initiatives—clearly establishing problem statements, quantitative business cases, boundary definitions (in-scope vs. out-of-scope), cross-functional dependencies, resource models, and tangible ROI/success metrics.
