Independent Validation and Verification
Back to Services
The extensively qualified Valued Technology (VTI) team formulates assessments on the health of your project from acquisition through sustainment. To develop our assessments we utilize industry best practice standards such as: EIA-ANSI 748, IEEE 1012 ,PMBOK, AS 4817, ITILv3, SEI's CMMI, the ISO 9000 Series and Agile Methodologies. Valued Technology serves as your "eyes and ears" into the inner workings of the project. Independent of the implementation project team, we provide insight into all aspects of the project life cycle: requirements management, adherence to the schedule and budget, project governance, technical architectures and organizational changes. Our assessments detail unbiased objective findings from which we develop recommendations for project, product and process, improvements. Utilizing our root cause analysis techniques we specialize in developing, and supporting the implementation of, immediate remedies required to rescue problem projects.
When failure is not an option, look to Valued Technology as your experienced IV&V partner. Our IV&V methodology provides management with an independent perspective on project activities and promotes early detection of project/product variances. This allows the project to implement corrective actions to bring the project back in-line with agreed-upon expectations. Objectives of performing IV&V include:
- Enhance management and technical insight into product risk.
- Enhance management and technical insight into process maturity and adaptability.
- Analyze project life cycle processes to assess compliance with regulatory, performance, schedule, and budget requirements.
