    Cynthia Walker has been appointed director of the Data Anayltics Center of Excellence at Salient Federal Solutions, Inc., according to the company.

    “The appointment of Cindy is another step for Salient as we strive to positively impact our engagements with our clients,” said Bill Parker, chief operating officer at Salient. “Explosive volumes of data have overwhelmed most enterprises. Adding a data analytics practice to our portfolio will enhance our ability to provide insight into understanding patterns and trends. “Cindy has a proven track record in data analytics and she will engage immediately with our current client base.”

    Salient Federal Solutions, Inc. (Salient) is a provider of information technology, training, engineering and intelligence analytics services to agencies in the intelligence, defense, Homeland Security, cyber security and federal civilian markets. The company is headquartered in Fairfax, with offices in McLean, Norfolk and several other locations across the country.

    Walker, who comes to Salient after serving as a director at Pragmatics, Inc., will be responsible for Salient’s Data Analytics strategy and expanding market distinctions and innovations of the DACoE to include predictive analytics, agile business intelligence and big data solutions for Salient’s clients.

    Walker has more than 25 years of information management and business intelligence expertise and has served as strategic advisor and architect guiding enterprise transformation, knowledge management, enterprise data management and information sharing efforts across the federal market.

    She is also a frequent speaker and trainer at national and international conferences and workshops, as well as an author of numerous articles and white papers on enterprise data management topics. At the upcoming Enterprise Data World conference in Austin, Texas on April 27 – May 1, she will present how to enhance traditional data management approaches and produce high-value business insights using semantic technologies with readily available data sources. In June 2013, she presented her perspective on predictive analytics at the U.S. Department of State’s Moneyball Diplomacy conference.

    At Pragmatics, Inc., Walker helped financial regulatory agency clients mitigate risks more effectively and fulfill statutory obligations of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act.

    Previously, she worked for KGS, Inc., and its predecessor, Pinkerton Computer Consultants Incorporated, as well as served as vice president at Acton Burnell.
