Full Job Description
About the Opportunity
DMI, LLC is seeking an opportunity for a Project Manager to lead delivery of a ServiceNow service management maturity, support, and development program for the U.S. Senate Sergeant at Arms (SAA). The program runs in two phases: an assessment and planning phase producing a current-state baseline, future-state service delivery model, and prioritized implementation roadmap; followed by iterative implementation against the customer-approved roadmap.
The Project Manager is the single accountable point for schedule, budget, risk, and a deliverable set spanning project management, governance, implementation, testing, training, organizational change management, and closeout. The role runs an Agile delivery cadence inside a formal Government acceptance process, so the right candidate is fluent in both sprint mechanics and deliverable discipline, and does not treat either as overhead.
Duties and Responsibilities:
Project Planning and Schedule
Develop the Project Plan covering approach, schedule, milestones, activities, dependencies, resources, deliverables, and proposed delivery methodology, due within 20 business days of award.
Develop, monitor, and maintain the project schedule and product backlog; track and report progress against both.
Maintain the deliverable cadence map aligning every required deliverable to a specific sprint, release, or phase timeline, kept current throughout the period of performance.
Deliverable and Acceptance Management
Track and manage all deliverables through draft, Government review and comment, and formal written COR acceptance.
Produce the Weekly Status Report covering accomplishments, planned activities, schedule status, deliverable status, risks and issues, dependencies, decisions needed, and upcoming milestones.
Manage rework and resubmission when a deliverable is rejected, without losing the underlying delivery cadence.
Agile Delivery
Serve as Scrum Master for the delivery team: facilitate ceremonies, remove impediments, and protect sprint scope.
Implement Agile project management methodologies in practice, adapting where Government acceptance gates are sequential rather than iterative.
Support release and sprint planning, including scope, user stories, acceptance criteria, dependencies, testing, and change management considerations.
Risk, Issue, and Financial Management
Identify, assess, and mitigate risks and issues; own the Risk, Issue, Action, and Decision Log throughout the period of performance.
Track and manage budget, burn, and resource utilization against funded scope.
Escalate funding, dependency, and technical feasibility constraints that affect roadmap sequencing.
Stakeholder Communication
Develop, monitor, and maintain the project schedule and product backlog; track and report progress against both. Maintain the deliverable cadence map aligning every required deliverable to a specific sprint, release, or phase timeline, kept current throughout the period of performance.
Serve as the primary management interface to the COR and customer leadership.
Ensure the use of industry best practices, techniques, and standards across the delivery team.
Brief status, risk, and recommendations in plain language to technical and non-technical audiences.

Education, Certification, and Years of Experience:
