Chief Engineer, BAE SYSTEMS. M301. As leader of the technical team, I proposed and won a $52M contract for a classified program.Chief Engineer, BAE SYSTEMS. Topographic Data Processing Prototype. I proposed, negotiated and won a $5.5M contract for automated triangulation and accuracy assessment of imagery. I completed leading the team of 14 engineers to design, build, and demonstrate the software and hardware system. The new technology is an order of magnitude improvement over the old system. The program received 4 consecutive 100% award fees on the CPAF. A new study is underway to put the prototype into full production.I am the inventor of YieldMap, ClearFlite and iRPS, and the engineering leader of a new Multiple Source Automated Triangulation technology.2006 Masstricht Award Recognizing Excellence in Air Traffic Safety (Clearflite®) 2004 Chairman's Award for Innovation - Multiple Source Automated Triangulation 2000 Chairman's Award for Innovation - Airfield Obstruction Tool (Clearflite®)
