MPSC understands that financial analysis is often a long series of confusing reports. Integrated financial analysis provides the government decision maker with real time operational decisions that will have an impact on the financial reports, not making financial decisions and hoping for an operational result. Our analysts are expert at the art of integrating operational decisions that are supported by financial analysis.

Program Management Support

MPSC can provide program Managers with financial support that then allows the program manager to manage the program, instead of being forced into the role of a “bean counter”.

Contract Management

With the advent of multiple contracts, and multiple contractors delivering goods and services, the government at times needs a contractor to insure that the prime contractors are delivering on the contract in the manner required by the contract.

Feasibility Studies

Our ORSA analysts employs the latest modeling techniques, as well as the tried and true analytical methods to review proposals, and ask the tough questions, prior to program start to insure that all costs, and risks are clearly understood by the decision makers prior to implementation. This rigorous analysis allows the decision makers to proceed with the knowledge, that a full independent analysis was conducted prior to program start, and that clearly defined milestones are identified to measure success.
