AFCEA BELVOIR INDUSTRY DAYS

On Nov. 8, PEO EIS’ Global Enterprise Network Modernization – Americas (GENM-A) Product Manager Lt. Col. Xkoshan Arnold and Global Enterprise Network Modernization – OCONUS (GENM-O) Product Manager Tom Dunaway discussed the Army’s network modernization initiatives during a breakout session at AFCEA Belvoir Industry Days.

PEO EIS is transitioning into an Agile organization, and EIS Program Executive Officer Ross Guckert is asking industry to bring its “A” game and “A” team to discussions about how to solve pressing Army challenges.

Day one of AFCEA Belvoir Industry Days got off to a strong start Nov. 7 with a morning keynote by Army Deputy Chief of Staff (DCS), G-6 Lt. Gen. John Morrison, followed by panel discussions with leaders from PEO EIS’ Business Mission Area and Enterprise Information Environment Mission Area.

Maj. Cliff Parry got his first taste of acquisitions while serving as a civil affairs requirements officer for the Army Special Operations Command. “I was a civil affairs officer surrounded by a slew of acquistion officers,“ Parry said about his decision to join the Acquisition Corps. “Anything that gets into the hands of a Soldier goes through an acquisition officer. No other job offers that opportunity.“ Parry, assistant product manager for the Army Training Information System (ATIS), is leading a team developing the Army's future training management system.

An application developed by PEO EIS’ Acquisition, Logistics and Technology Enterprise Systems and Services (ALTESS) product office recently received accolades within the Army Special Operations Forces (SOF) community.
