CACI International Inc. has today appointed David M. Wennergren Vice President within the company’s Enterprise Technologies and Services business group. He will head the group’s opportunity management and customer delivery practices.
“We are pleased to welcome Dave Wennergren to our operations team,” said John Mengucci, chief operating officer of CACI. “He is a highly effective leader with proven management and team-building skills, and he will be a valuable asset in our delivery of the operational excellence our customers rely on to meet their greatest challenges.”
Wennergren comes from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), where he most recently served as Assistant Deputy Chief Management Officer. He also served OSD as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Information Management, Integration, and Technology) and DoD Deputy Chief Information Officer. He led the DoD Enterprise Software Initiative, which achieved cost avoidances across the department, and chaired the DoD team overseeing enterprise-wide implementation of the Common Access Card, which improved information and physical access security and replaced labor-intensive paper processes.
“Dave Wennergren brings CACI exceptional leadership experience in the federal government arena and great insight into how we can continue to evolve our capabilities to support the government’s most critical information solutions and services requirements,” said Ken Asbury, president and chief executive officer of CACI. “His appointment reflects CACI’s sustained focus on leadership excellence and our dedication to the nation’s highest priorities.”
Prior to OSD, Wennergren worked for the Department of the Navy (DON) as Chief Information Officer (CIO), where he developed department-wide information management and technology strategies, policies, architecture/standards, and process improvements, including a wide range of critical infrastructure protection initiatives. Wennergren has been awarded with the DoD Distinguished Civilian Service Award and the Meritorious Executive Presidential Rank Award.
“In my first job as a young analyst working for the Navy, I had the opportunity to work with a team of outstanding professionals from CACI on a cutting-edge technology initiative. Throughout my career in government, I have witnessed that CACI is a company of exceptional integrity with a long history of delivering outstanding support to the Defense Department and the nation,” said Wennergren. “Now, I am very excited about the opportunity to join this world-class team and lend my hand to help address the pressing technology and change management opportunities that will face organizations in the years ahead.”
