How the IRS uses Galorath’s SEER-IT Modernizes Complex IT Processes

Faced with oversight by the Treasury Department, GSA (General Services Administration), and Congress, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) was tasked with providing specific information about their varied and numerous projects and initiatives. Their in-house project office had been using Excel spreadsheets as an estimating tool—but to little effect: cost and schedule overruns persisted. After an extensive vendor evaluation, the IRS selected SEER-IT. Over the next 12 months, Galorath’s on-site consultants helped the IRS develop and integrate processes, establishing a database of historical projects as a reference for future ones.

“We have been using SEER MFG, and the 3D platform for composite, sheet metal, wiring harnesses, machining and others since at least 2012. What we like is the coverage of multiple manufacturing processes, the ease to customize, and the excellent service support from Galorath. Since introducing the 3D platform, we have gained a lot of speed, providing a different estimation, and it is even easier to use. We recommend 100% the use of this software for cost estimation.”

“Knowledge bases based on historical NASA, AF, and Commercial Satellite contractors that are easy to use and select from program office technical parameters. It is easy to incorporate into the Automated Cost & Integrating tool to include other program costs and complete what-ifs for almost any scenario. Outstanding to say based on the industry average and have any challenges have to answer why it is more or less than the industry.”
