ON THE MOVE
CHANGE OF CHARTER AT PM SPIE COL Dean M. Hoffman IV, left, PM for Soldier Protection and Individual Equipment (SPIE); BG Brian P. Cummings, PEO Soldier; and COL Robert Mortlock, outgoing PM SPIE, stand at attention during the PM SPIE change-of-charter ceremony June 26, 2015, at Fort Belvoir. Hoffman assumed leadership of PM SPIE from Mortlock, who retired from the Army and is now a lecturer at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA.
Hoffman comes to PM SPIE after serving in several positions with the PEO for Intelligence, Electronic Warfare and Sensors (IEW&S), including Program Manager for Communication Intelligence and Sensor Systems (now part of the U.S. Special Operations Command) and Product Manager Medium Altitude Reconnaissance and Surveillance Systems.
In his three years as PM SPIE, Mortlock led the development and fielding of several high-profile items, including the Army Physical Fitness Uniform, selection of the Operational Camouflage Pattern for the Army Combat Uniform and initiation of the Soldier Protection System. (Photo by Doug Graham)
WILTSIE DEPARTS EIS; WATSON NAMED ACTING PEO Douglas K. Wiltsie relinquished the charter of the PEO for Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) to Deputy PEO Terry Watson on Nov. 23, 2015, in a ceremony at Fort Belvoir hosted by the Hon. Heidi Shyu, ASA(ALT). Wiltsie is now serving as executive director of System of Systems Engineering and Integration (SoSE&I).
“Doug, you and your team have done an outstanding job of strengthening the link and solidifying the trust between our Soldiers and the information they rely on for mission success and a safe return home,” said Ms. Shyu in her remarks, “Doug’s leadership has been incredible.”
Wiltsie assumed the charter of PEO EIS in October 2011 and was respon- sible for the development, acquisition, fielding and sustainment of the Army’s enterprise information systems, overseeing an annual budget of nearly $2 billion. During his four-year tenure, PEO EIS helped transform the Army enterprise through implementation of innovative acquisition and mate- rial readiness solutions that enable information dominance. These efforts include delivering critical infrastructure and enterprise information capa- bilities, modernizing Army network and strategic communication systems,
developing complex business and integrated personnel management sys- tems, and deploying global logistics systems and enterprise services.
“I will miss working with you most of all—EIS has a dedicated, expert team unrivaled by any other PEO,” Wiltsie said in announcing his departure. “Thanks for all you do, and keep up the outstanding work—it’s because of you that we are able to connect the global Army.”
