This effort shall be executed using the SEMOSS application. 4.0 TASK LISTING 1. Prepare a Task Order Management Plan describing the technical approach, organizational resources and management controls to be employed to meet the cost, performance and schedule requirements through out task order execution. Under guidance provided by the Government Task Lead (OTM), the contractor shall support and provide expertise to the OTM as required. Program Management specific activities will be performed in support of each government objective and priority. The contractor shall ensure that execution of all tasks is aligned with Department of Defense (DoD) policies and regulations.
