Catapult Technology Grows Management Consulting Practice

Catapult Technology, Ltd. (Catapult), a leading Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned (SDVO) Information Technology (IT) contractor to the federal government and private sector, has expanded its Management Consulting/Program Management Support practice with the addition of three new projects and an expansion of the company's largest client.
Catapult's new projects include initiatives at the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).

"As part of Catapult's Technology and Management Solutions division, the Management Consulting practice helps government agencies and other entities to work more efficiently, with a greater sense of scope and mission," said Randy J. Slager, CEO, Chairman, and founder of Catapult "We're helping our customers adopt federal reform initiatives to ensure that government procedures, laws, and rules are being followed. We bring consistency and accountability to organizations so they can run more smoothly."

Catapult's new projects include:

The U.S. Department of Transportation. Catapult is providing Senior Executive Coaching services to DOT's Senior Executive Service (SES) and GS-15 level employees. The coaching consists of personality assessments, such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI); identifying personality traits and interpersonal communications skills to provide a thorough understanding of perceptions and assumptions about people and their environments; undertaking 360 Degree performance assessments of people in leadership roles; conducting facilitated sessions to improve group performance; and conducting individual coaching of senior leaders.

The General Services Administration. Catapult will produce an integrated document detailing GSA's IT business system and infrastructure modernization efforts covering a three-year period (2010-2012). Specifically, Catapult will develop an IT Modernization Plan for GSA's IT infrastructure and business applications written in "plain language" that can be shared with non-technical executives and managers; develop an "as-is" view of the current IT environment; develop a three-year roadmap of modernization efforts; and develop a high-level enterprise sequencing plan. This project comes on the heels of Catapult's largest contract, the $200 million General Services Administration (GSA) Infrastructure Technology Global Operations (GITGO)
contract that Catapult won in March 2007.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Catapult is providing travel support for CFTC employees, handling travel arrangements, ensuring that government-wide travel regulations are being followed, and ensuring that travel-related expenses are appropriately captured, reimbursed and documented. It is a one-year contract with a CFTC option for an additional year.
