- 70-U.S. Dept. Of Commerce Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA), intends to procure on sole source basis the Executive Project software from CONFIDA FL, Inc. 1909 Harrison Street, Suite 209, Hollywood, FL 33020. MBDA proposed to contract with CONFIDA, a software company, to purchase its "Executive Project" software product and accompanying services. CONFIDA, " is a web-based monitoring and reporting tool bringing panoramic project oversight and control capabilities to the fingertips of the busy executive." The Executive Project software is a tool that MBDA uses to: A. Evaluate baseline performance of its funded programs/projects/initiatives more effectively through early warning signals and crucial project information, B. Focus on progress, priorities and key statistics of MBDA programs. This feature will improve the timeliness and quality of reporting to MBDA stakeholders, C. Obtain effective feedback from stakeholders through its Action Box feature, D. Provide for improved project management and team decision making and more timely adjustments to project feedback, E. Improve in allocating Agency resources to funded projects, F. Receive project guidance from CONFIDA's Project Leadership Consultants. G. Received hands on monitoring of operating system from CONFIDA's staff The Executive Project solution offers the software and the coaching/guidance on key projects. This software is used to monitor projects and give managers the advice to make the project successful and then the company gives manager's a ?heads up' on the issues that they need to be aware of. The second point is project management, the program is designed to support Executive and Management decisions. The third distinction is the consulting/training. They will combine traditional training with ?targeted coaching' on the actual projects that employees are managing. Furthermore, because the system allows this company to monitor the projects remotely, they can coach and train remotely via e-mail and phone which allows them to have an impact but at a much reduced cost. See note 22 For additional information please contact Jean Hairston, NOAA, fax 301-713-0808, jean.hairston@NOAA.GOV, the subject of the e-mail should state the Executive Project Software.
