PEO EIS leaders took part May 9-10 in the eighth network-related technical exchange meeting (TEM 8) hosted by the Network Cross-Functional Team and Program Executive Office Command, Control and Communications – Tactical (PEO C3T) in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

We’re embarking on another busy spring and summer with a number of leadership and program transitions.

LEADERSHIP TRANSITIONS

Program Executive Office Enterprise Information Systems (PEO EIS) hosted the quarterly PEO Cross-Service Summit in McLean, Virginia on April 7.

Vincent “Vince” Hayes is chief of the Lifecycle Management Division for Integrated Personnel and Pay System – Army (IPPS-A).

An IT software expert with 32 years of Army contracting experience, Stacy Watson leads a 14-person team that manages the lifecycle of 177 Computer Hardware, Enterprise Software and Solutions (CHESS) hardware, software and IT-services contracts worth more than $23 billion. Watson leads by example. “Everything that I ask anybody to do, I would do myself or have done myself,” she said. Today’s #PEOEISTeammateTuesday, Watson answered eight questions.

“My job involves helping people, which is the best part about it,” said Karen Monahan, a contracting expert who possesses a rock-solid understanding of Army regulations and policies. In a typical day, Monahan doles out business advice to PEO EIS program offices about contracting, pricing and source-selection requirements in the Federal Acquisition Regulation and Defense Acquisition Regulation Supplement. She also manages the source-selection process for professional-services contracts, evaluates contractor performance and updates the PEO EIS procurement forecast. We asked Monahan, today’s #PEOEISTeammateTuesday, eight questions about her career and life.

“Part of my job includes understanding where technology is headed and what innovative solutions can enhance the Army network,” said Bob Carroll, lead engineer for the Defense Communications and Army Transmission Systems (DCATS) project management office in PEO EIS’s Enterprise Information Environment Mission Area.
