To support the NC FAST Program, Crodo Consulting has engaged a team with experience in large, complex systems integration projects and the Cúram platform to provide a variety of periodic, on-site Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) services. The intention of these services is to provide the state, and its federal partners, with a comprehensive, independent assessment of the NC FAST Program. Findings and recommendations identified during the assessments will be addressed by the NC FAST program to help ensure the successful implementation of the program’s projects.
