MCG is working with GSA to support a Resource Planning and Analysis Support task, to draft organizational change package(s) and provide work process analysis and future skills requirements. The Office of Integrated Technology Services (ITS) was in the process of preparing for a transition to a Category Management operating model. This would require that an Order and necessary documentation be developed, reviewed, and signed by administration leadership. MCG developed the Order documentation and supported an ITS-wide skills assessment to understand where to focus training under the new operating model. The engagement became more challenging when the ITS-wide reorganization became part of a larger and more complex reorganization effort. This challenged MCG to revalidate the deliverable documents that needed to be developed as the Order strategy shifted dynamically. MCG forged ahead in the development of the reorganization package as well as the ITS-wide skills assessment. By the end of the performance period, ITS was well on their way to completing the Order documentation.
After conducting a 2-day leadership development training for senior leadership, MCG is continuing to play a vital role in this government administration’s overall transformation. Our team is comprised of multi-faceted individuals who have worked with leadership by designing, developing, and conducting a survey across the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) to determine the readiness of the organization for a major organizational change both in terms of the business model and staff alignment. Ongoing work is focused on business process analysis and organizational optimization and workforce strategy.
Involved since Day 1 of an agency-wide Transformation, MCG has supported this client in reengineering business processes and developing requirements for each release in production as well as future releases. As a trusted and objective partner, MCG supported the agency’s’ successful transition from waterfall software development to agile development. We served in key roles on agile teams developing ELIS 2, and participated in four separate Agile teams as project managers, developers, business analysts, and testers to successfully deliver time-boxed sprints of capabilities. Our work has been recognized repeatedly, with: a Director’s Pioneer Award as a partner on the agency-wide transformation; an OTC Teamwork for Release Preparation award in 2013, and; an IBM STAR award for November 2013.
