Successful delivery of programs is mission critical to customers and shareholders. Unfortunately, surprises on program progress and cost are far too common. By their nature, greater innovation drives higher variability and lower predictability. Excessive delays and costs on a given program can compromise every important command objective. With each additional dollar and delay above plan, risk increases. Funding dollars end up buying less products or services than intended. Even worse, key programs can be delayed or even cancelled. Like a chain reaction, every extra dollar consumed on one program can additionally impact other critical needs. Ensuring programs are delivered on time and to budget while being fit for purpose is a difficult task in today’s complex and dynamic environment. CBS has developed processes and proprietary support tools that provide real-time visibility to new issues and ultimately better management of highly complex programs. CBS assists customers with achieving program objectives by improving program performance from the initial program definition and design, through the production of prototype, the manufacture, and post hand-over service.
