Encore Analytics

What Encore Analytics does

Encore Analytics, LLC is a privately held, verified Veteran-Owned Small Business founded in 2012 and headquartered in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. The company develops and sells Empower, a browser-based analytical tool for programs that use earned value management (EVM) techniques to plan and control complex projects. Empower integrates earned value, schedule, work authorization, and other key performance data into a single web-accessible interface supporting interactive analysis, dashboards, narrative analysis workflow, and data-driven audit support for control account managers, program managers, oversight organizations, and support staff. The platform supports the industry's broadest range of EVM data formats, including DoD IPMDAR JSON, DOE CPP JSON, UN/CEFACT IPMR, ANSI X12 839, wInsight XML, and Microsoft Project/Primavera P6 XLSX imports.\n\nEncore Analytics serves U.S. federal agencies and their contractors, with a customer base that spans the Department of Defense (NASA, MDA, NAVAIR, NRO, NSA, DCMA, DAU, U.S. Army, U.S. Marine Corps, F-35 JPO), the Department of Energy and national laboratories (Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore, Sandia, Idaho, Brookhaven), and major defense and engineering contractors (Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, L3Harris, General Atomics, Bechtel, Jacobs, Rolls Royce, Pratt & Whitney). The company reports that Empower users actively manage more than $250 billion in program scope across these engagements.\n\nThe business model centers on subscription-based software licensing and support for Empower (server-based, deployed behind customer firewalls or on AWS GovCloud / Azure Government), supplemented by professional services for implementation, training, and configuration, plus AWS Marketplace procurement. The product is sold through direct enterprise sales, with supplemental GTM driven by the annual Empower Users' Group (EUG) Workshop, NDIA, EVMP, and EVM World conference participation. The company maintains no disclosed external investors and operates with 1-10 employees. Recent product evolution has added optional GenAI LLM integration, Schedule Execution Metrics, NRO-style Agile/EVM bridging, and expanded DoD DECM and DOE data-driven audit compliance features.

Broad incumbents

• Deltek: Deltek is the dominant ERP/EVM suite for government contractors and project-based firms and acquired Encore's founders' prior company (C/S Solutions, makers of wInsight). It competes head-on with Empower via Cobra and wInsight and is the most strategically important competitor in EVM analytics.
• Oracle Primavera: Oracle Primavera P6 is the leading enterprise project portfolio management and scheduling platform used across DoD, NASA, and large engineering programs. It integrates with Empower and competes for EVM/schedule analytics budgets in the same government accounts.
• Microsoft Project / Project Online: Microsoft Project (and Project Online/Project for the web) is the de facto scheduling tool of choice across government and industry and exports into Empower. While not a direct EVM analytics competitor, Microsoft roadmap additions (Power BI, Copilot) increasingly overlap with Empower's narrative/analytics value.

Direct peers

• Dassian: Dassian provides Programs Plans & Controls (PPC) for SAP, integrated with Empower via a joint partnership with Humphreys & Associates. The two products are sold together for SAP-based EVM compliance and overlap in analytics scope.
• Integrated Management Concepts (IMC): IMC's DecisionEdge WebEVM provides cloud-based EVM analytics with ANSI-748 compliance and has a formal integration with Empower. The two products target overlapping government and contractor accounts for EVM data-driven audit support.
• forProject: forProject EVMS is an EVM software tool for government contractors and is a formal integration partner of Empower. It competes for the same EVM analytics and IPMDAR submission workload on DoD programs.
• EcoSys (Hexagon): EcoSys EPC is an Enterprise Planning & Controls platform with native EVM analytics, and is a formal technology partner of Encore Analytics. The two tools co-exist on many programs and compete for the analytics and performance-management layer.
• Safran Software Solutions (Caterpillar): Safran Software Solutions (now part of Caterpillar) provides enterprise project, risk, and EVM software to government and engineering customers, and is a formal integration partner of Empower. It directly competes in EVM reporting and analytics for complex programs.
• ProjStream: ProjStream's EVMax is an EVM tool for compliance and surveillance with an established interface to Empower. The two products compete for EVM compliance mandates on government and contractor programs.
• Acumen (Tractico / Deltek Acumen): Acumen / Deltek Acumen provides schedule risk analysis and EVM analytics widely used by DoD programs and contractors. It is a direct competitor in the schedule analytics and data-driven audit space that Empower addresses.
