WORK EXPERIENCE:

Business Development Manager, Brown and White Inc, Tucson AZ 04/2009-

01/2010

Established a business development and estimating department structure.

Working to improve this small construction company's federal contracting

capability, have briefed and established a rapport with the Small Business

Liaison Officers for Boeing, Raytheon, L-3GSES, Unisys, and Perot Systems.

Represented the company at numerous small business administration meetings

and have begun liaising with US Customs and Border Protection, US Army

Corps of Engineers and various base contracting officials. At the same

time, have served as the temporary IT manager, establishing new contracts

for IT services, including an upgrade to server, software and capability

and a separate vendor contract for web site development. Wrote and

delivered the winning proposal's technical volume for the largest

government contract ever won by this company, a $16+ million parking lot

for Fort Bliss Texas. The last thing I did for Brown and White Inc, was win

a Multiple Award Construction Contract in support of the USMC at Yuma MCAS.

This base, plus 4 OY contract has the potential for up to $60 Million over

the life of the contract. With that award, this small company has reached

its bonding limit - $200 million and cannot pursue new contracts,

consequently my position has been vacated/cut and I was laid off.

Consultant and Prospective Program Manager, AllWorld Language Consultants

(ALC) Inc, Rockville MD 1/2009-3/2009

Led proposal development for the Bilingual Bicultural Advisor/Subject

Matter Expert Program. Rewrote the entire proposal from a previous version,

Deployed to Iraq, overcame multiple personnel problems to include gangs,

employee violence, substandard production and a failed organizational

structure. Successfully served as the primary interface with customers at

the unit, Brigade, and component HQ level and completely turned around all

aspects of the program. In the end, production was up, first pass yield

went from a consistent 48% to 97%, employee retention doubled and the

supply measures were at 98 % for inventory accuracy, 99 % for

reconciliation and 100% for property book accuracy. Led the final option

year negotiations, saved over 200 jobs and finished with the final contract

value at $155Million, more than double the value at the start of my tenure.

Excellence, Colorado Springs CO US 7/2006- 10/2007

the corporate machinations of ITT. First opportunity to truly excel came

about with an assistance visit to the European Business Operations Center

senior staff. Earned a VBSS Green Belt with a project on Program/Project
