Why Watch:
With a rich, technical background in computer science, a disciplined program management approach honed on civilian and defense programs valued at more than $1 billion, and a drive for building trusted partnerships that better enable customer missions, Heise is a leader synchronizing technology, process and people at a critical time in the IT modernization era. During a recent Federal News Radio Executive Roundtable titled “Maintaining the IT Transformation,” Heise noted “one of our roles is to give customers confidence in the out-year value that they need — from a mission perspective as well as a savings perspective.” Heise is one to watch as she leads an organization carrying out that critical role.
