PRLog (Press Release) – Sep 13, 2012 –
Executive Mosaic’s weekly round-up of news is a can’t-miss, digestible snapshot of the GovCon industry covering the biggest executive moves, mergers & acquisitions and contracts straight from the pen of one of GovCon’s most respected facilitators and sources of breaking news, Jim Garrettson.
This week, Jim focused on the release of Executive Mosaic’s latest edition of the premiere industry magazine GovCon Exec. Specifically, he previews the profile of CGI president of U.S. Operations, George Schindler.
As the column points out, the article is full of personal anecdotes and focuses on the message that collaboration is the impetus for Schindler’s success. Jim also describes the various triumphant business dealings and that it took to propel Schindler to his current position.
Mr. Garrettson also features five GovCon deals and executive moves in his column that he deems essential for industry executives to know about.
This week’s contracting news includes Bill Hoover and American Systems buying SAIC’s testing unit, and Sotera Defense Solutions appointing a new chief financial officer.
Other important topics that it covers include Bill Varner speaking about a new Cyber VP at ManTech and TWD’s Mike Lee discussing the promotion of an in-house executive to lead its GWAC center.
To end the column, Jim points to news that broke on GovCon Wire Wednesday morning, which could signal the end of European contracting as we know it. BAE Systems and EADS are in ‘advanced talks’ to merge the two companies into one dominant defense and aerospace company.
