Our Story
IPS was founded by Cory Yager and Yu-Hsuan (u-SHEN) Chen in 2009 with a realization that defense acquisition required more effective and decisive business solutions. We started IPS above a garage, driven by this idea.
We’ve been able to grow our team as more DoD decision makers recognize the value and impact of our support solutions. We’ve maintained this growth through our hiring of only high quality and high performing individuals who share our vision and values of making a difference. Our team of rockstars average 16 years of expertise across Integrated Scheduling, Software Integration & Test, Rapid Capabilities Integration, Systems Engineering, Project Controls/Earned Value Management, and Program Integration.
We also find it important to have a family feel culture where within IPS. We believe in supporting each other and building each other up. We take pride in knowing everyone within the IPS family, including our employees’ families.
