The REI team serves as a centralized planning and execution engine for all retrofits, expansions, and network initiatives across NA Last Mile Delivery Stations. The team owns intaking a business request, translating validated business needs and site-driven opportunities into executable deployment plans that align with OP1 and OP2 goals as well as site driven requests.
REI partners cross-functionally with Operations, Design, Preconstruction, Construction, Startup, Finance, and PMO teams to intake, prioritize, and sequence projects through a standardized stage-gate process. This includes consolidating fragmented intake channels into a single, structured pipeline to improve visibility, reduce redundancy, and ensure consistent decision-making across the network.
The team is responsible for balancing network capacity, cost, and speed by optimizing existing infrastructure—driving initiatives such as capacity maximization and site enhancements ahead of peak demand. REI also manages key dependencies including topology plans, installation capacity, and long-lead procurement timelines to ensure realistic and achievable deployment schedules.
