Recent global economic challenges have driven federal government agencies to identify cost reduction strategies and best practices that can be adopted across all U.S. government agencies.  Robust program and project management skills are vital to achieving these goals.  In order to markedly increase efficiency and effectiveness while staying on schedule and on budget, government agencies must implement dynamic program and project management approaches.

Leadership & Experience
Atlas Research provides clients with the project management structure to execute strategies efficiently and to measure the impacts of internal project management functions.  Our team employs a full menu of approaches to assist clients in designing, implementing, and refining practices to establish an effective project management structure.  Atlas experts can identify the supporting functions and staffing required to achieve an organization’s mission and vision; develop programs to address organizational change activities; refine and mature project management governance practices; and connect resources to project management functions.  The Atlas cadre of certified Project Management Professionals (PMP) utilizes industry-proven practices in their approach to maximizing an organization’s revenues, responsiveness, and flexibility while keeping projects aligned with strategic business goals and objectives.

The Atlas team’s most critical capability is our ability to understand and implement effective project plans to fulfill our customer’s needs, particularly government-unique requirements. For example, Atlas has significant past performance that demonstrates the company’s broad knowledge of the Department of Veterans Affairs, including projects at the Federal, network, and facility levels.  The Atlas staff is well-versed
in the demands associated with establishing a policy planning office from its work in establishing VA’s Office of Rural Health Policyand Planning Group (PPG). The project team played an integral role in developing and managing over 300 nationally implemented rural health projects.

Atlas Research also brings first-rate expertise, experience, and technical competency in the organization, development, and administration of meetings and working group programs.  For the College for Accreditation of Health Management Education (CAHME) International Healthcare Management Education Initiative, Atlas staff provided a systematic review of healthcare management training programs in 16 countries, and prepared country-specific profiles of health administrator supply and demand within these territories.
