Hayes is responsible for the sustainment of the deployed baseline, the delivery of 14 HR enhancements, the integration of military pay and additional HR capabilities.

Hayes has served at IPPS-A in various positions of increasing responsibility since November 2015.

Before arriving at IPPS-A, Hayes worked at the Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) as a contractor and government civilian from August 2011 to October 2015. His duties involved assessing the effectiveness of Train the Force initiatives and representing the organization during post-deployment after-action reviews to collect feedback on all JIEDDO initiatives leveraged for combat operations. Previously, Hayes was the training manager (contractor) at the Army’s Rapid Equipping Force (REF), where his team was responsible for developing and presenting training to units receiving REF equipment.

Hayes retired from the Army in 2008. Late in his Army career, he was the senior enlisted advisor for HQDA G-3 Training, the United States Army Europe and Africa G-3, the Joint Multinational Readiness Center’s Timberwolf team, the S3, 4/91st INF (training support), and the University of Iowa ROTC department.
