Program Management Support
 

Slide Orizon helps plan, coordinate, and manage IT programs
and projects to enable our clients to make the best
strategic decisions, optimize costs versus benefits, and
implement mission capabilities on time.
 
 
Orizon provides a broad range of program management office (PMO) support services. We collaborate with program and contract office teams to define/refine strategies; and then prioritize initiatives for implementation by analyzing costs, benefits, risks, and cross-initiative impacts. We provide critical support services ranging from project planning and portfolio management to improving their Capital Planning and Investment Control (CPIC) processes to developing system alternatives and cost benefit analyses.
 
 

Program Support


Our PMO support spans the program’s life-cycle and includes daily operations, budgets, administrative functions, project schedules, and reporting on project objectives and milestones to ensure that incremental and long-term program success is achieved. We also provide guidance and support for any required certification and accreditation processes of systems considered for implementation.
 

CPIC and OMB Support


We assist organizations at all stages of the CPIC life cycle that include supporting the investment review process, and assisting in data collection and budgetary submissions for IT program initiatives. We bring extensive experience supporting Government teams responsible for the CPIC processes and producing the OMB Exhibit 300s and 53s for IT investments.

Cost/Benefit Analysis


We help Federal agencies with all elements of the cost-benefit analyses enabling them to present a sound and objective business case for a proposed technology investment. Typical activities include assessing needs, quantifying benefits, and completing the financial business case. We develop cost estimates for project development, implementation, and maintenance; perform alternative, impact, and statutory justification analyses; and categorize business case costs and quantitative and qualitative benefits.
 

Organizational Development


We have a proven and successful record helping Federal agencies effectively leverage their human capital (HC). With a focus on providing strategic planning, organizational development, change management, and HC management support, we help align people to organizational goals. We help improve organizational performance, and ensure alignment with strategic goals, organizational initiatives and staffing priorities. We develop workforce planning strategies and effective communication strategies that facilitate timely information exchange at all levels of the organization. We recommend solutions that impact organizational business practices and processes; and assess the impact of new programs and legislative and policy changes on existing HC business systems, processes, and resources.

U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS)


The DHS Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer (OCHCO) administers Human Resources (HR) services for DHS headquarters and its components. For over 7 years, Orizon provided the DHS OCHCO with a full range of strategic organizational, technical, and program management services related to the transformation of HR capabilities across the Department. We developed the Department’s first Human Capital Strategic Plan (HCSP) that included the concept of operation for aligning human capital (HC) requirements to meet the DHS mission.

We assessed the impact of HC system redesigns and service delivery integration on staff; and planned and lead the activities of multidisciplinary teams to design and monitor projects and studies related to DHS HC information technology, organization development, strategic workforce planning, and business process reengineering.

Orizon was also awarded a multi-year contract to provide the DHS OCHCO Human Capital Business Systems division with program management support for developing and managing the OMB Exhibit 300, Capital IT Investment Control Planning, and business case and other program related requirements for reporting to Congress. We assisted in monitoring program performance; adjusting assignments, sequencing priorities and schedules; and providing requirements and business process engineering support. These activities required technical and functional knowledge and expertise in HR systems and policy to analyze system requirements and conduct testing.
