Project Management

Project Management Services

 

We manage discrete projects within deadline and budget constraints.

When a short-term project comes up or new priorities require immediate assistance, we provide organizations with highly skilled expertise and flexible work arrangements with hours you need to meet your goals.

  • Project management and technical assistance

  • Interim leadership or staffing

The following are some examples of our project management and technical assistance work with clients.

Applying for homeless services funding from HUD

NYC Dept of Health (DOHMH)

As a project partner/subcontractor to Community Resource Exchange (CRE), The Public Good provided project management services to coordinate the scheduling, planning and communication of over 50 community conversations in public libraries in every borough on behalf of the NYC Department of Health’s Take Care NY initiative. We created web-based tools available to team members to keep each other informed and on track.

 

Center for Urban Community Services (CUCS)

We managed the preparation of NYC’s annual numeric estimates of homeless and City-wide emergency and transitional beds as required for the City’s application of federal funding from HUD. Oversaw HUD funding application data requirements including count of homeless and system-wide bed and shelter supply.

Drafting solicitations and guidelines for government contracting

NYC DSS - Human resources administration

On behalf of Office of Contracts & Procurement at one of NY City’s largest agencies, we researched and wrote over fifty operation procedures conforming with City and State procurement regulations in order to standardize how staff procure goods and services.

Separately, we provided on-site technical assistance in preparing solicitation and contract registration support on behalf of the DSS-HRA’s program offices.
