Program and Project Manager Level Support:

 

Over the last 20 years, Catalyst Technologies has been supporting organizations in the science of reliable implementation. The results have been accumulated in a breakthrough approach to reliably increase profit. The key, as described by Catalyst Technologies’ founder Bruce Nagy, is based on using a business indicator called “Average Performance Range and Index” (APRI) as a statistical feedback mechanism. Without it, proposal and implementation teams are limited to unnecessary risk taking, excessive guesswork and reactionary tactics – hindering profit opportunity, along with customer trust.

 

AVOIDING THE UNFORSEEN

 

Program and contract managers need to have calculated answers that are based on what’s essential to increase profit or award fee associated with their contract obligations. The more guesswork and reaction to unforeseen issues increases the risk of maximizing profit, along with maintaining good customer relations.

 

USING SCIENCE NOT FICTION

 

By applying a simple math approach called “Average Performance Range and Index” (APRI) as a feedback mechanism to bids and awarded projects under a fixed price and cost plus award contract, managers have dramatically more control over bidding accuracy, meeting deliverables and satisfying customers. APRI gives you unprecedented ability to identify cost, schedule and quality issues months in advance, and resolve these issues without incident, while maintaining profit goals. 

 

Here’s what’s been said about the founder of this approach, Bruce Nagy …
