A federal services firm — focused, accountable, small by design
Federal health programs run better with Metrics.
Acquisition support, program management, PPBE, and health informatics for VA, NIH, and DHS — delivered by a small, focused team with 25+ prime contracts in execution.
Built for federal-health program execution — not for scale theater.
Federal health agencies do not need another vendor. They need a partner that understands the mission, shows up close to it, and delivers the boring, measurable work that moves programs forward.
Focused by design
We limit our portfolio so our principals stay close to every engagement. Clients work directly with leadership — not a layer of account managers.
Federal-native
Every active contract is federal work. Acquisition support, PPBE, program management, health informatics — we do not moonlight in commercial.
Mission over margin
We size scope to the client outcome, not to a target P&L. Lean overhead, contractor-site delivery, and direct partnership translate to lower cost and better execution.
What we do
Seven disciplines, applied where the program lives.
These are the surfaces where our team spends every working hour. Acquisition support and program management are the spine; the rest extend the same operating discipline into health-program specifics.
Acquisition Support
Market research, requirements development, source-selection support, and post-award contract administration across health and mission agencies.
Program Management
PMI/PMP-led program execution — schedule, scope, risk, communications, and stakeholder management for federal health programs.
PPBE
Planning, Programming, Budgeting & Execution. Defensible budget builds, execution tracking, and reprogramming support for federal financial cycles.
Health Informatics
Data flows, interoperability, and informatics program support for VA, VHA, and NIH — clinical-informatics SMEs embedded with leadership.
Process Improvement
Lean, Six Sigma, and continuous-improvement methods applied to federal program operations and back-office workflows.
Data Analytics
Mission analytics, performance dashboards, and decision-support tooling for program managers and senior leadership.
AI / ML Support
Responsible AI/ML integration into federal program workflows — scoping, vendor evaluation, governance, and outcome measurement.
Past performance
Representative engagements across health and mission agencies.
A selection drawn from 25+ prime contracts. Full past-performance package — including agency POCs and contract values — available by request under our capability statement.

Leadership
A small team — and that is the point.
Federal-services delivery is relationship work. Our principals stay personally close to every active program, every quarter, every review.
