Case Studies

For over 25 years, Karlo F. Menoscal has delivered EVMS that programs can rely on, from $1B national security programs to Department of Energy cleanup and space launch. These case studies show the results that experience brings to every Elixir Value Management Systems engagement.

Nuclear Weapons Modernization Program, U.S. Air Force

  • Challenge: A $1B national security program had to move from light EVM practices to full EIA-748 compliance.

  • Approach: Led the EVMS team and owned the tool environment, including Deltek Cobra and Primavera P6, so every monthly report rested on accurate, integrated cost and schedule data.

  • Result: Took the program from light EVM to full EIA-748 compliance, delivering a disciplined baseline, reliable schedules, and monthly reporting that program leadership could trust for decisions.

Environmental Cleanup Program, U.S. Department of Energy

  • Challenge: Cleanup operations at Idaho National Laboratory needed a more efficient, better integrated EVMS.

  • Approach: Strengthened the data integration between Primavera P6, Deltek Cobra, and the supporting EVMS tools.

  • Result: Delivered tighter integration and more accurate project controls data, giving the program a stronger foundation for scheduling, monitoring, and execution.

Space Launch Programs for the Air Force, NRO, and NASA

  • Challenge: A major launch provider needed an EVMS built for high-stakes national launch programs.

  • Approach: Helped implement the EVMS and built the Deltek Cobra and Open Plan environment from the ground up.

  • Result: Earned DCMA EVMS Certification, giving the Air Force, NRO, and NASA confidence in cost and schedule management on their launch vehicles.
