At the Defense Information School at Fort George G. Meade in Maryland, the record-keeping resources are getting a high-tech makeover. Dan Nightengale, senior consultant and project manager, has been making it happen. Nightengale has spent months managing multiple teams and applying AGILE project management methodology to replace the legacy applications with a more user-friendly, efficient and effective solution. It’s a type of work he’s focused on since he began as a project manager at CGI Federal in 2016, and from which he derives a particular kind of satisfaction.
“I like seeing something start from an idea or a plan and getting it implemented, into a customer’s hands and completed and delivered,” Nightengale said.
The infrastructure conversation goes beyond Congress, too. That was made clear in remarks from FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr, who delivered the final keynote address at the Fly-In. The Commissioner said the regulatory agency wants to get out of the way of businesses so the private sector can deploy next-generation broadband networks. These 5G networks will serve as the backbone for smart cities -- from enhanced public utilities to improved transportation systems.
“We want the U.S. to win the race to 5G,” Carr said. “Technology companies will help us make this happen and the technology industry will benefit through all the advantages the next generation of networks will deliver.”
But while the current role he’s in isn’t explicitly technical, being able to handle and understand the IT side of the projects he works on is always a boon. Sometimes his roles have been more focused on IT and sometimes, like at CGI, they have been more organizational. But with every career step he’s taken, the CompTIA certifications he holds have made things easier in numerous ways.
