Challenge
A critical Department of Defense office needed to address the impacts of a constrained workforce and shrinking industrial base on critical nuclear modernization programs. This complex task required a strategic approach to resource management and industrial capacity assessment.
Solution
Leveraging Ark's Modernization Application, the office developed a Risk Management Framework for the Nuclear Enterprise. The platform analyzed industrial base risks and opportunities, while forecasting contractor workforce needs in key regions for the coming decade.
Impact
Ark's workforce analysis enhanced schedule feasibility assessments, improving cost and timeline metrics for modernization programs. The platform's industrial base insights enabled leadership to swiftly identify alternative supplier capacity for crucial nuclear technologies, bolstering the credibility of the U.S. nuclear deterrent.
