METL™ Labs Strategy + AWE offers a new approach to accelerate business-critical programs.

The Problem

Cyber Defense Teams don’t have the luxury of time on their side. 

Cyber Criminals  “We’re in your blind spot with nothing better to do.”

• Most projects today are trying to use a "one-size-fits-all" approach designed for software development full lifecycle on critical cyber defense modernization projects.
•  
• Like all big projects in large enterprises and government organizations, the biggest hurdle in the modernization of any business unit that involves ISVs and OEMs is the decision-making process: RFI, RFP, Award, Contract, and Onboarding processes. 
• So by the time that is completed and the euphoria of the awarded contract wanes, quickly comes a very impatient management team when they start facing a prototypical project plan's delivery timelines and slippage. 
•  
• This is the project manager’s perfect storm, and in today’s exponential cyber threat landscape, project managers must adapt or die.  Unfortunately, they are not equipped to fight these battles on the timescales necessary to keep ahead of the global presence of bad actors who do have the tools they need to penetrate and win.
•  
• Please make no mistake about it, this battle is strategic and can't be won with only firepower, which is important but takes time. It needs to be augmented with special ops.
