Abstract: Program management (PM) complexity depends on the budget size and program types. In general, the program types can be classified into three categories, namely, defense, commercial, and civilian types. This chapter presents and discusses an approach for integrating the PM discipline areas with emerging data science and decision science1 (DDS) for any program type. Additionally, we describe the key PM areas and present a corresponding generalized model consists of a list of multiple PM discipline areas that can be tailored for any program types. To demonstrate the PM-DDS integration approach, we focus on three key PM areas and corresponding PM discipline areas related to schedule, cost, and risk management. These three discipline areas are analyzed to identify appropriate program elements that can be enhanced using existing DDS technology enablers (TEs). We also propose a flexible PM-DSS integration framework by leveraging existing machine learning operations (MLOps) framework. The proposed integration framework is expected to allow for enhancing the program planning and execution by reducing the program risk using a wide range of DDS TEs, including big data analytics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning, neural networks, and artificial intelligent.
