Schedule Management: Develop and manage holistic project plan spanning across all task orders and delivery orders. Track milestones, critical path activities, and deliverable dates. Collaborate with Configuration and Data Management to track due dates for CDRLs, ensure deliveries are accounted for in project plans, and ensure resources are allocated to meet or exceed due dates.

Performance Measurement: Track key performance indicators (KPIs) such as cost variance, schedule variance, agile performance metrics and quality metrics. Conduct post project reviews to capture lessons learned and improve future processes.

Proposals and Estimates: Provide sound BOEs for proposals and support the development of accurate bills-of-material for proposals. Accurately forecast and estimate future work for proposals, scope changes, or approved risk and opportunity driven tasks.
