L-3 STRATIS provides world class tailored program management services to customers in the United States and around the world.

L-3 STRATIS provides world class tailored program management services (TPMS) to its customers, leveraging the full breadth of L-3 services and capabilities to control these often large, complex programs.

Incorporating the full range of integrated program management services, TPMS includes scope, cost, schedule, quality and risk management. TPMS also includes specialized expertise and capabilities not normally provided as part of program management. These include financial engineering to help address funding, funding sources, and capital structure, and technical specialties such as logistics, information technology, or security support. It also includes services to build the client’s internal institutional capability.

International project management

L-3 STRATIS maintains a team of program managers and technicians that specializes in managing complex construction projects for international customers. To review their offering, visit the International section of our web site.

In the STRATIS approach, TPMS is organized into these disciplines:

• Program Assurance and IV&V - One of the most difficult challenges of major infrastructure and construction programs is maintaining focus. Once things start, the pace quickens and circumstances change. L-3 STRATIS provides services such as program assessments, requirements management, and project portfolio management - to help clients maintain the discipline necessary to ensure their program does the right things and does them right.


• Cost Engineering - Understanding program costs is vital; not just the amounts, but the structure, sources, and factors related to the cost elements. Without this, evaluating planned costs or bids for realism or completeness becomes a guessing game. Our many proven methods - including Construction Cost Estimating, Program Validation and Third Party Reviews, and Value Engineering Analysis - help ensure our customers get the best value for the cost.


• Program Management and Project Controls - Too often, plans for the scope, schedule, and cost become disconnected and cause confusion. Issues are discovered too late for managers to mitigate, causing delay, rework, quality issues, conflict, and higher costs. L-3 STRATIS applies an integrated management approach that keeps the various management components connected and analyzed as a whole as well as individually.


• Financial Engineering - Balancing the finances of a major infrastructure construction program is challenging. Investors, financing institutions, and owners each have their own interests. Finding attractive, appropriate funding options is difficult. L-3 STRATIS provides a broad range of financial engineering services to attract and structure funding sources, as well as assessing the most advantageous capital structure.
