About TMPMO
Project Management and Operational Coordination for Complex Research Environments
Talton-McCray Project Management Operations (TMPMO) provides project management and operational coordination support for research facilities, laboratories, and regulated environments where technical work must be executed carefully, sequentially, and with accountability.
We operate at the intersection of facility operations, laboratory equipment, and project delivery—helping organizations plan, coordinate, and document complex work without disrupting active research or critical operations.
TMPMO exists to bring structure to situations where multiple vendors, technical constraints, and operational risks converge.
We provide project management and operational coordination support to research facilities nationwide, working across diverse regulatory, institutional, and geographic contexts.
-
TMPMO serves as an independent project management partner, not a trade contractor or equipment servicer.
Our role is to:
translate technical findings into clear, actionable decisions
sequence work to minimize risk, downtime, and rework
coordinate specialized vendors without bias
document rationale, scope, and recommendations
protect operational continuity in active environments
This allows clients to move forward confidently, knowing that work is being planned and executed in the correct order and for the right reasons.
-
TMPMO is most effective in environments where:
research or laboratory operations must remain active
equipment downtime carries operational or compliance risk
multiple technical disciplines must be coordinated
decisions must be documented and defensible
leadership needs clarity before authorizing work
Our work often supports laboratory equipment maintenance planning, lab transitions and pack-outs, facility upgrades, and project-based operational support within research settings.
-
We approach each engagement methodically and without assumptions.
Before work begins, we focus on:
understanding the operational context
identifying dependencies and constraints
validating sequencing and scope
clarifying roles and responsibilities
Only then do we move into coordination and execution support.
This approach reduces surprises, avoids unnecessary expense, and helps ensure that technical work is performed under the right conditions.
-
TMPMO supports federal, academic, healthcare, life science, and private research organizations across the United States, providing consistent project coordination regardless of location.
We work with facility leaders, research directors, operations managers, and contracting teams who value clarity, documentation, and disciplined execution.
-
TMPMO is not designed to replace internal teams or technical vendors.
We exist to support decision-making, coordination, and execution so those teams can operate effectively.Our value lies in structure, not speed.
In clarity, not volume.
In informed decisions, not assumptions.
TMPMO brings calm, structure, and accountability to complex operational environments—so critical work gets done the right way.
