AEGIS has been supporting various offices throughout the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) providing Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) services since 2002. The agency’s Office of Information Services has determined that incorporating IV&V into its Program Management Methodology will help the organization more fully leverage the proven benefits of IV&V enterprise-wide. This Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) will provide simplified access and funding for IV&V to all programs and projects as needed, and is designed to ensure project success by effectively reducing program and project risk.
