Integrated Program Management
The Columbia Group provides Business, Technical, and Integrated Program Management services within a broad scope of functional areas for the Department of Defense (DOD) and other Federal Departments and agencies. We provide support within the individual functional areas as well as cross-functional integration and management. We focus on synchronizing the functional and cross-functional program activities and de-conflicting competing needs. We also work to harmonize the interests of stakeholders external to the customer organization.
The Columbia Group works to balance the many factors influencing our customers’ cost, schedule, and performance, using industry standard practices as well as innovative solutions tailored to a specific customer. Our support offerings range from full, stand-alone capabilities, to multiple levels of assistance to a customer’s existing activities.
We also provide Integrated Program Planning and Management Support to non-DOD customers, drawing up on our knowledge and experience with DOD programs to create effective solutions in the non-DOD world.
