Testing Strategy & Global Governance (AI-Enabled) ▪ Own global testing strategy across all testing phases. ▪ Maintain AI-enhanced templates, playbooks, and ADO structures. ▪ Improve the framework using AI release insights. Regional Enablement – Regions Execute, You Govern & Guide ▪ Provide AI-supported guidance and readiness standards. ▪ Support regions during SIT/UAT/OAT and ensure adoption of automation where valuable.
