- Statement of Work Primavera 6 Support SOW 1. Background: The Industrial Operations Division of the Surface Forces Logistics Command (SFLC) needs support to facilitate implementation of its Industrial Project Management System (IPMS). IPMS is an integrated project management system with web-based Primavera 6 (P6) as the core component. The Industrial Operations Division is comprised of 20 Industrial sites and nine (9) Maintenance and Weapons Divisions (MWD) across the United States. They utilize IPMS/P6 for all project management and resource utilization tracking. The Central Management Office (CMO) and the Industrial sites have approximately 2 years of experience with P6 and the MWDs have just completed their transition to P6 (i.e. new users). Due to increasing complexity of cutter and boat systems, pressure on budgets and increasing demands for cutters and boats to sustain mission readiness, the utilization of Industrial Operations Divisions project management (IPMS/P6) must directly support and provide benefit to the execution of depot level maintenance and therefore mission readiness. There is a gap between current depot level project management training, processes and practices and achievable project management best practices. This gap results in suboptimal resource utilization, over/underestimation of resource requirements, pose an excessive administrative burden, and overall lack of labor accountability.
