Areas of Expertise
	Acquisition Management	DSC offers a range of services through the acquisition cycle. We develop requirements, prepare solicitation documents, and support proposal evaluation. We also perform cost studies, generate procurement justifications, and provide source selection support.
	System Engineering and Technical Assistance	DSC provides independent engineering expertise to support the client's mission. Our computer scientists and engineers have devised solutions to complex technical problems in telecommunications, national security, healthcare, transportation, energy, and the environment. These solutions enable us to offer technical assistance in an array of disciplines from system/LAN/WAN re-engineering to disaster planning and recovery.
	Independent Verification and Validation	DSC ensures, by independent monitoring and testing, that system software and hardware fully comply, in every way, with original contract specifications. Through early detection and resolution of errors and by applying empirical software engineering "best practices," DSC reduces costs, mitigates risk, improves delivery time, and increases product safety and quality.
	Program Management	Our consultants take a leadership role in providing project direction. We support subcontract management, task order budget tracking, billing reconciliation, and preparation of compliance reports and subcontracting plans.
	Feasibility Studies	DSC consultants perform diverse business management studies to assess client requirements and report on technical and cost viability. These studies can embrace business process methodologies and re-engineering, technology research, testing, and prototyping.
	Risk Studies	We evaluate and recommend mitigation strategies for business risk exposures. Using a top-down approach, DSC begins at the global level to determine potential impacts on management and end-users.
	Security Studies	DSC reviews internal and external physical and business risks such as access management exposure, information technology exposure, hackers, spies, and internal staff.
	Analysis and Planning	We perform requirement analysis and systems definition. Engineers and technicians define functional requirements and generate comprehensive plans for end-to-end systems. DSC also offers performance and cost benefit analyses and evaluates system architecture, modeling, and design.
	System Assessment	Beginning with an evaluation of a client's existing software and hardware systems, DSC develops plans for modernization, system monitoring, tuning, capacity, and upgrade.
	Staff Augmentation	We create value for our clients by transferring skills and technology that improve infrastructure, processes, and client services. We offer expertise in designing and developing complex and open computing solutions for enterprises of all kids. DSC engineers cover the spectrum of essential project skills. In addition, they bring to bear a thorough knowledge of prototyping, database modeling, application development, transport integration, and data sharing issues.
