ABOUT KAREN CLEVELAND
I\'m an experienced government contract program manager (PMP), and trusted team member who understands solidifying customer relationships and achieving organizational goals. For 12+ years I\'ve worked on federal contracts providing effective PM skills. My current customer consistently awards my management oversight exceptional scoring; resulting in contract re-compete WINS. Navigating indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity under a firm fixed price contract means operating daily under TBD conditions and knowing when to scale - all on razor thin margins. TIMING IS EVERYTHING. I was a selected ORAU team member to build-out a new contract win - the National Student Services Contract; a congressionally approved nationwide staffing/recruiting contract with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)- Office of Research and Development. Understanding the intricacies of a new contract, customer expectations, and assignment of in-house resources resulted in exceptional customer performance. PROJECT DELIVERY. I am passionate about mitigating risk, cultivating business portfolio growth via service excellence, stewardship of government funding, and healthy financial performance. PASSION DRIVES SUCCESS. I’ve proven myself a confident communicator, well respected colleague, Program Management Professional (PMP) and loyal team player. These attributes come easy when you love what you do!
