branson — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 20:36:48 +0000

So I have been working for Raytheon For the last few months on a cool project in the ATOL. They were working under a contract called ConITS and had bid the next iteration called LITES. They lost and STG won the contract. The Program Manager is someone I have worked for before, Christine Matthews, and had great experience with. I am looking forward to talking to them Tuesday about the new Contract and opportunities.

So looks like Bruce Potter may be coming to speak at our ISSA meeting here in Tidewater. I had been talking to him about this for a bit and tho he’s about to be a Dad again, he’s willing to take some time out to come down to give a presentation. Very excited.

We’ll have to move the meeting to Monday Aug 9th to accomplish this.
