Program & Project Management


Faced with a complex problem that involves multiple inputs, coordination with numerous organizations, and integration of diverse processes? The Stacia Group can help. We offer you decades of experience planning, preparing, and executing exceptionally challenging technical programs.   While The Stacia Group provides certified program management professionals, we believe that your technical challenges require more than certifications and holistic project management software applications.   People get things done…not administration and applications. As such, our Program Managers utilize High Reliability Operations (HRO).

High Reliability Operations (HRO)

The Stacia Group starts with a solid delivery plan to enable excellent customer service, which is adapted from a technique used to manage nuclear reactors on U.S. Navy Submarines and has been used by us on existing IT contracts. The Stacia Group employs this technique—termed High Reliability Operations (HRO)—by training all company employees on HRO formal processes, which includes:

  • The Pre-Evolution Brief ensures technical delivery is on schedule and to the satisfaction of the customer. It also ensures the team understands the tasks, the delivery schedules, and each member’s responsibility to deliver the tasks.
  • Trip Wires are put into place to track the progress of the tasks. This ensures any potential issues are identified early in the process and provide course corrections before schedule becomes “at risk.”
  • A Hotwash is completed to ensure lessons learned are captured to improve any future iterations of the tasks at the successful completion of each project.

The steps we take to manage your program or project are not simply standardized industry methods…the steps we take are developed and customized based on your organization’s environment and specific needs. Doing so results in smooth execution and complete synchronization with your daily business cycle and tempo.
