As a leading manager in your IT organization, you are juggling many projects and initiatives simultaneously. Trying to keep pace with the numerous laws, regulations, and policies enacted in the last several years requires a depth and breadth of subject matter and technical expertise that most CIOs do not have on hand. The Paperwork Reduction Act, the Computer Security Act, Presidential Decision Directive (PDD) #63, the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA), and the Clinger-Cohen Act each require you to develop initiatives, implement changes, and conform to new requirements and regulations.
CIBER’s Federal Group is organized by the customers we support. As a result, for each engagement we leverage our experience working in your environment, our institutional knowledge of CIO support, and our in-depth senior staff expertise to formulate an approach that is tailored to the needs of each specific task order.
Our lifecycle support to CIOs provides you with the expertise you need to assess, plan, and implement new strategies and tactics in your IT deployments. We can provide long-term, on-going assessment and support to continually improve organizational effectiveness. Our methods and approaches help you address both internal infrastructure and external IT legislative issues. We function as an extension of your office, performing the tasks essential to supporting your agency’s IT needs, whether helping your agency attain or maintain a “green” rating on the PMA scorecard, implementing the latest FISMA requirements, achieving alignment to the FEA, or completing OMB 300s to obtain funding for your IT projects.
CIBER can help you maintain and grow an effective CIO office that provides the necessary guidance for successful IT investment, serves as “one-stop shopping” for agency IT solutions, and employs a proactive approach to technology insertion. Our full-lifecycle approach helps you assess, define, implement, and sustain your strategic approaches to IT implementation. And, because we have an in-depth understanding of how to take an initiative from a customer requirement to a fully-deployed system, we can enter at any point of an engagement to further your project along.

The CIBER Approach
CIBER’s approach starts with a full and thorough understanding of your existing business and technology models. To achieve this we work with you to assess Business and IT Strategic plans to understand where you have been, where you are going, and whether your procedures still chart a course to your objectives. We then review your current IT infrastructure to develop a baseline understanding of your Enterprise Architecture and its components to determine whether your technology has kept pace with your plans.
Using well-defined techniques for requirements gathering and requirements analysis we can help you define your next set of strategic initiatives based on the business needs of your agency. We take these strategic initiatives and develop an implementation plan, and identify and assess alternate scenarios. We work with you to select the appropriate alternative and build the budgetary plans to help you attain approval for their implementation.
Our PMI-PMP certified Project Managers can help you implement these plans using a wide array of strategies and methods including:
- Program analyses (CBA/ROI)
- IT investment
- System deployment
- Grants management
- Workforce assessment
- IT organization review
- TCO assessments
- A-76 studies
Plan development and implementation take into account your initiatives to implement CMMI and ITIL best practices. Certified practitioners will help you implement your approaches to achieve the highest level of quality.
