INDEPENDENT EVALUATION
OF GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS
 Many important government programs have never
been thoroughly evaluated. The evaluations that have been completed have not sufficiently produced budget priorities or
changed agency management practices. Many agencies lack an office of evaluation
with the standing and staffing to support determined, strategic, objective, and relevant evaluation
processes.
Consequently, many government programs have persisted year after year
without adequate substantiation that they meet their intended outcome. In some
cases, evaluation funds have flowed into studies of insufficient thoroughness or
policy significance. Federal programs are rarely evaluated using
multiple scenarios with the goal of identifying those that are more productive
and cost-effective. And findings of completed evaluations do not always reach
the right decision makers to cause sufficient program changes and
re-baselining.
Independent and rigorous evaluation of government programs can be
performed by highly specialized CNC subject matter experts using our Portfolio,
Program and Project Performance Assessment (P4A™) methodology. The
CNC P4A
methodology
can help
determine whether government programs are achieving their intended outcome as
effectively as possible and at the lowest possible cost. P4A evaluations can
also help agency managers strengthen the design and operation of agency
programs.

Government
Transformation
The Federal Government is
currently facing unprecedented challenges in the following areas:
maximizing resources with shrinking budgets; demonstrating accountability and transparency;
meeting privacy concerns; accelerating IT deployments; and keeping up with emerging technologies.
Most government IT
infrastructures were developed in response to urgent business needs without
long-term view. The approach created underutilized, complex and costly to
maintain IT environments. At the same time,
federal agencies continue to be exposed to vulnerability risks
due to
a patchwork of legacy networks.
CNC is successfully participating on
government transformation efforts.
Our experts scrutinize processes and technologies
and uncover new ways to align IT with business
needs, control costs and risks, improve
productivity, and increase service levels. We
also
identify cost-savings opportunities in data center consolidation
as well as Green IT, virtualization, server consolidation,
infrastructure optimization,
and
cloud computing.
We understand that cloud computing will
help meet goals of collaboration, energy
efficiency, transparency and cost savings. We also understand
that overhaul and consolidation of data centers and
migration to cloud computing platforms will help optimize the hosting of
applications.
And to
help our clients stay ready, CNC facilitates access to the latest
technologies and solutions. This ensures we render unbiased recommendations
with the utmost independence and objectivity.
