Pre-award planning, no matter how comprehensive, cannot ensure programmatic success without robust and integrated program management.  A successful award is only the beginning.  However, in many cases, the program office is asked to provide comprehensive program management without adequate resources, in an environment of tightening budgets, complex technical requirements, and heightened scrutiny.  Program management procedures must be able to keep pace with these increasingly sophisticated technical and service requirements in order to avoid ballooning costs and schedule slippage.  If program requirements are not executed on time and within budget, the slippage starts a domino effect.  Delays translate into lost dollars and lost opportunity, and other activities dependent on the program meeting its requirements schedule are impacted.  Often reprogramming of scarce resources is required to get back on track.

CEXEC provides comprehensive Program Management Office (PMO) support and program control tools to ensure your program meets its original schedule and cost objectives.  CEXEC helps achieve success through-implementation reviews which are applied to all investment programs.  The reviews assess the results of an investment program against baseline expectations to determine if it is achieving its performance and benefit targets, meeting the needs of customers, and whether the original business case is still valid.  We track and analyze program costs, schedules, performance, and mission outcomes and frame that data against the Exhibit 300 program baseline.  Managers are armed with useful information on how best to modify an ongoing investment program to eliminate flaws, improve performance, and better meet the needs of customers, assist management in determining whether to continue, modify, or cancel programs, and aid in the evaluation, planning, and funding of programs during the annual budget cycle process. CEXEC professionals have extensive experience integrating a range of functional areas into the PMO, and implementing simple and effective program control tools.  We regularly help program teams develop, implement, and track performance metrics, conduct recurring program reviews, and directly support the program office when negotiating changes with the vendor community.

CEXEC ensures that program managers are armed with useful, timely and relevant data, resulting in increased program control and better management.  Our professionals can help program offices determine how best to modify an ongoing program to eliminate flaws, improve performance, and better meet the needs of customers.  CEXEC’s expertise allows the program office to immediately assess the overall health of its programs, which aids in the determination of the most effective levels of resource allocation.  This degree of programmatic transparency places ultimate control squarely in the hands of the PMO, enabling it to keep programs on schedule and under budget.  With CEXEC in your corner, program execution that meets its original schedule and cost objectives is a reality.  Contact CEXEC today to ensure your programs success!
