Dan Hushon
CTO, Guidehouse
Dan Hushon is focused on challenging the horizons of technology, providing a platform for ongoing innovation and stewarding a culture within Guidehouse that drives transformational change for clients and the communities they serve.
“Dan’s passion, technological savvy and excellent leadership capabilities are instrumental in advancing our innovation efforts as we work together to propel Guidehouse into our next phase of growth,” said Guidehouse CEO Scott McIntyre.
At just 4.5 years old, Guidehouse pioneered a unique model to provide advisory, digital and managed services, growing over 400% (both organic and inorganic growth) since inception. With the completion of the Dovel Technologies integration this past August, Guidehouse unveiled Guidehouse Digital, which serves as a catalyst for Guidehouse as a next-generation consultancy.
Along with the leadership team, Hushon is sharply focused on continuing to drive this growth. With a Silicon Valley approach, he directs the company’s investments in next-generation cloud solutions enabling client service teams to accelerate value delivery.
An accomplished industry leader with over two decades of experience in building and overseeing innovation at high-growth businesses, he is spearheading transformational activities for Guidehouse as the company accelerates the delivery of consulting, digital and managed service solutions to the market.
“We are at a precipice of the next phase of business or agency productivity that will come from the ability not just to look into data, but more importantly look across data to understand interrelated aspects and how to optimize business processes by putting advanced analytic techniques like AI & machine learning against the data that’s been stored ⏤ ultimately turning the data into realized value,” he said.
Why Watch
As a primary focus area, Hushon and his team are working across Guidehouse to build a more common set of approaches to consistent business requirements. These common solution platforms are built in modern ways and with cloud-native styles in a collaborative community approach.
“Guidehouse is one of the few firms that can bring a top-down and side-to-side engagement approach with our clients,” Hushon said. “We bring a community of stakeholders together and maximize the value propositions for our solutions to these big problems. It’s a key advantage ⏤ we have the advisory and digital engineering talent and help our clients build and move through strategy and execution. We help you strategize, execute on that strategy to re-align and accelerate the business forward.”
