After serving in the very important role of principal deputy chief information officer for the Department of Defense, reporting to CIO John Sherman, for several years, Kelly Fletcher got the call recently to join the State Department as its CIO. Now with State, Fletcher is tasked with establishing the technology strategic direction and providing oversight for $2.5 billion of technology programs across the department, including the development of State’s potential $10 billion IT modernization acquisition dubbed EVOLVE, which is set to be solicited in the near future.
