Sustaining the Core: Managing Risks to Program Portfolios
June 2 2005
In times of increasing constraints on defense modernization spending, preserving a healthy core program portfolio must be a major concern.

Avascent has identified a set of patterns that explain both the factors that give rise to program vulnerabilities and the actions government officials are likely to take in response to those vulnerabilities. Such analyses, which we label “customer-centric risk” (CCR) assessments, explicitly recognize and assess the external vulnerabilities a program may face.
