Case Study: Lockheed Martin improves F-35 risk management efficiency with Sword GRC's Active Risk Manager

Lockheed Martin Improves Risk Management Quality and Efficiency on the F-35 Multi-role Fighter Program with ARM

Lockheed Martin, the global aerospace and defense company behind the F-35 program, needed a proven way to improve visibility and control over risk across a highly complex, multi-tiered effort. For Sword GRC, the challenge was to support day-to-day risk management for teams, suppliers, and senior leaders while handling the scale and security demands of a major national security program.

Sword GRC implemented Active Risk Manager (ARM), a web-based risk management platform, with a tiered process for program, intermediate, and supplier-level risks and tight integration with Project View and Microsoft Project. The solution gave Lockheed Martin a single view of risk across the program, supported hundreds of users, improved mitigation planning, and made risk management more efficient and cost-effective, helping keep the F-35 program on track, reduce costs, and better meet milestones and budget targets.
