• The PM must proactively manage all RFQ proposals, Task Order implementations, and other projects from inception to completion.
• The PM must manage these projects using a critical path schedule and risk management approach, with entries in the Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) so all work can be deconflicted, managed, and updated.
