ACQUISITION

Today, the federal government purchases more than $250 billion a year in goods and services from the private sector and distributes grants of more than $400 billion.

In the past, acquisition processes were viewed as "transactions" and, sometimes, barriers that must be overcome to implement a program. LMI assists federal managers in transforming their acquisition function into an enabler that helps accomplish agency objectives. A properly designed acquisition strategy can reduce costs, provide more responsive support, and assist the government in delivering services to citizens.

We help federal acquisition and grants managers improve policies, streamline procedures, and reduce costs. We specialize in work for the federal government and employ a staff with a wide range of expertise in acquisition and grants, many with recent federal experience. For these reasons, we achieve effective results that solve managers' problems.

LMI provides a variety of services in acquisition and grants:

• Acquisition management
• Grants management
• Cost analysis
• Technology assessment.

As a not-for-profit company, we operate free of political and commercial bias, which allows us to assist federal managers on their most sensitive issues. LMI has a quality management system that is certified under the ISO 9001:2000 standards, and we consistently follow our quality management procedures to ensure the delivery of quality products on time and within budget.
