Case Study: AVT Simulation gains program visibility and standardization with Deltek Cobra

AVT Simulation standardizes program control and nearly doubles in size with Deltek ComputerEase

Applied Visual Technology Inc. (AVT Simulation), a defense simulation systems integrator, faced a challenge with manual program finance processes. As the company grew and moved into manufacturing, its staffing plans, forecasts, and Estimates at Complete (EACs) were all managed in disconnected spreadsheets. This led to inconsistent management across programs and limited visibility for leadership, making it difficult to identify and address issues like schedule slippage proactively.

AVT Simulation implemented the Deltek Cobra earned value management solution to standardize its financial reporting and execution. With Deltek, the company established a consistent monthly cadence for updates, retired its spreadsheets for a single source of truth, and gained earlier insight into program performance. This provided the infrastructure to scale, supporting the company as it nearly doubled in size, and enabled leadership to make proactive, data-driven decisions.
