S3I develops and delivers responsive aviation and missile total life cycle cyber, software, protective technologies, and systems simulation engineering to enable readiness and ensure modernization of the United States Army to optimize joint warfighter capabilities at the point of need.

7. Back to the Future
S3I Leadership in almost constant flux since creation
Drove SSDD/SED/PT-AT to having lots of leadership flux
Sep S3I stood up by Mr. Edwards and Bill Colson selected as first S3I SES leader
Nov Bill promoted to SMDC Tech Director
Oct 2016 – Jeff moved from AED to S3I
Jan 2017 – Jeff acting AMRDEC Dir
Nov 2017 – Jeff to S3I
So in the midst of the above… lots of great folks acting as the director, deputy director THUS SSDD and SED getting different acting directors and deputy directors, THUS division chiefs being acting, etc, etc…
So LOTS OF FLUX in leadership across S3I almost from the start.
Yet the mission continued to be executed wonderfully.

8. Philosophy The reason we come to work everyday is
Ensure the Chief’s priorities are met
Readiness
Modernization (6 priorities)
People
Support the larger DoD in the areas of Ballistic Missile Defense
Support the POTUS National Security Strategy
We live and demonstrate the Army values EVERY DAY.
We ensure as leaders that we build the bench in the areas of all things software and grow our people.

9. S3I Alignment Why Change?
S3I SES creation 2013
Align like duties
Consistency
Improve effectiveness
Improve value to our customer base
