Program & project management for initiatives that have to land.
Marshall Solutions Group provides program governance, schedule, budget, risk, and stakeholder management for founder-led businesses, commercial organizations, and federal, state, and local government agencies — from facility launches and system rollouts to programs that have already slipped. Government contractors can engage us for program and project support, including post-award ramp-up. We also support operational acquisition integration.

Overview
What we build
Most organizations don't fail at strategy. They fail at the handoff between a decision and the work that delivers it. Critical initiatives get squeezed between day-to-day operations, ownership blurs, and leadership finds out about problems after they've become expensive.
Our program and project management service closes that gap. We stand up governance, run the integrated schedule, own the risk register, and give executives a clear, honest view of program health. Delivery is backed by experienced project leadership — the standard enterprise and federal programs expect.
Managed Program Leadership & Delivery provides ongoing, hands-on program management: operating cadence, workstream coordination, milestone tracking, contributor accountability, and sponsor reporting. Governance, recurring meetings, action registers, and risk and dependency reviews are maintained within agreed authority; final program and employment decisions remain with the client. Capacity, responsibilities, and term are defined in the agreement.
We manage programs, people, and implementation. We do not provide licensed engineering or design services; we coordinate the technical teams and partners who do.
Our service supports founder-led businesses building structure and preparing to scale, commercial organizations managing growth and change, and federal, state, and local government agencies strengthening operations and execution. Government contractors can discuss separately scoped program and project support.
Post-Acquisition Integration & Operational Execution
Marshall Solutions Group supports organizations navigating acquisitions and ownership transitions through structured operational assessments, program management, process alignment, and implementation oversight. We help leadership teams establish accountability, coordinate priorities, and translate transition objectives into executable plans.
- Operational readiness and gap assessments
- First 100-day execution planning
- Integration program management
- Process and organizational alignment
- Stakeholder coordination
- KPI tracking and executive reporting
Our ownership transition support connects post-merger integration support and 100-day operational planning with portfolio company operational improvement and organizational alignment. The focus is operational execution, not transaction advice.
Problems We Solve
Where execution usually breaks
- Critical initiatives compete with daily operations and quietly slip.
- No single owner is accountable for schedule, budget, and risk together.
- Executives learn about problems late, from the wrong people.
- Multiple sites or teams implement the same change inconsistently.
- A program is already off track and needs to be stabilized.
- A new award or major client win outpaces the team's delivery capacity.
