Learn more about how Booz Allen and our clients use Polaris to solve their project, program, and portfolio management challenges.

1. As projects grow in complexity,
ensuring they are delivered on-time
and on-budget has become more
challenging.
In order to meet their commitments
it is critical that project, program,
and portfolio managers not only have
accurate forecasts but also that they can
identify key issues before it is too late to
take corrective actions to fix them.
Successful project management requires
integration of all three project controls
disciplines—cost, schedule, and risk—
not just in a set of slides reviewed once a
month but in an analytical model allowing
their cross-impacts to be calculated
and analyzed.
Advanced Project Analysis
Using Polaris
Booz Allen’s Polaris is a first-in-industry
tool for integrating cost, schedule,
and risk artifacts into a single model
which can be simulated to predict cost
and schedule growth, analyze its root
causes, and identify tangible actions
decision makers can take to mitigate
future growth. Polaris’ RealTime Analytics
simulation engine allows all this analysis
to run in real-time. By bringing project
analysis out of the cubicle and into the
hands of the engineers and project
management professionals, they are
able to tackle the toughest challenges.
Making Polaris Work for You
Booz Allen built Polaris to help projects
deliver on time and on budget. Some
projects, however, may need more than a
tool to help them reach their goals. We’re
here to help—Booz Allen not only offers
Polaris training and consulting support
but also has teams of cost estimators,
schedulers, and risk managers here to
help your organization better manage your
projects, programs, and portfolios.
