Program Capture, PMO and Supply-Chain Strategy for EU & US Teams
What we do
We help A&D leaders plan and win programs and execute reliably. Our senior, independent team delivers clear strategy and disciplined execution across five focus areas:
Program Capture & Portfolio Strategy — opportunity sizing, decision-maker map, win themes, bid/no-bid gates.
PMO & Governance — RACI, cadences, KPIs, escalation; operating dashboards your teams can run.
Supply-Chain Risk & Qualification — risk files for critical items, dual-source plans, qualification timelines.
Cost-Out & Margin Protection — make/buy, standardisation, value engineering, measurable benefits.
Executive Decision Support — options with trade-offs and a 90-day action plan.
