The Problem:
Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) sought support for its Program and Project Management Division (PPMD) to reduce project costs and risks, improve estimation of resource needs, streamline processes and procedures, and reduce the variation in project execution and reporting.
The Solution:
Octo provided program and project management services that help PPMD reduce project costs and risks, better estimate resource needs, and reduce variation in project execution and reporting. Leveraging our ITIL expertise, we helped to establish standards and processes that support both Agile and Waterfall methodologies and that adhere to all mandates, regulations, and OCIO priorities.
