The person will engage partners and AISPL professional services to get the same executed. Once there is a contract in place, the person would gracefully handover to the partner / customer (If customer wants to execute themselves). However, the person will continue to stay in touch with the customer to help make them a public reference over time. All along the way, the person will closely work with the business development representatives to ensure the process is tracked and delays / problems escalated with customer / partner / AISPL management for resolution.
