CACI is seeking a Program Management SME (Technology Programs) to join our team. Our Performance Excellence (PX) SMEs are a small team of seasoned program management experts who support, drive and track outstanding performance by CACI’s 300+ customer-facing program. PX engages with programs throughout their lifetime, from pre-award to program shutdown. We objectively help identify and resolve performance issues – insisting on transparency, escalating bad news, and collaborating on solutions. We conduct independent reviews for large and/or risky programs and participate in corrective and preventative action planning.

Through our active engagement we drive improvements in (1) management and execution consistency by similar programs and (2) tools, data, processes, guidance and help programs leverage them to gain maximum value with the least burden.
