Federal program managers are under continuing pressure to improve their management of IT project risk. Although most would agree that federal risk management practices have improved overall in the past five years, federal program managers believe that their agencies should do more to manage project risk.

A survey recently conducted by the Government Business Council, in partnership with BearingPoint, suggests that federal program managers find independent assessments to be highly valuable in managing project risk. In light of these findings, GBC and Bearing Point would like to discuss the obstacles federal program managers face in managing project risk for IT investments and how independent assessments can be used to mitigate project risk.

Please join us March 13th to hear BearingPoint's industry experts discuss how federal program managers can achieve value-added results from their investments in independent assessments such as IV&V.
