Turn Strategies into Solutions.
Macfadden's staff provides critical project and program management expertise required by government agencies to fulfill their missions. The implementation of a Project Management Office (PMO) is often driven by an enterprise effort to improve project management capabilities. We apply the precepts of many standard best practices and process standards, including CMMI and ISO 9001:2008, to ultimately enable enterprise-wide process improvement.
Serving as a watchful eye, we provide our clients with a critical view of how projects relate to available resources and business goals. To measure business value across a variety of project office functions including project management, program integration, studies, and analyses and reports, our experts apply key metrics. Communication and collaboration tools such as Microsoft® Project™ and Microsoft SharePoint™ Portal Server, are continually utilized to ensure a greater sharing of information. Ultimately, we will work with our customers to evolve the PMO to address higher-level issues such as strategic planning, governance and portfolio management.
Macfadden's proven approach to PMO planning, implementation, and providing support services is well documented. Our comprehensive solutions include professional consulting, provisioning and support staff.
Macfadden has successfully delivered a variety of management solutions in the federal government and commercial markets including: U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), U.S. Department of State (DOS), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), U.S. Peace Corps, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), and Department of Transportation (DOT).
