Hue’s contribution is measurable, significant, and outstanding against any standard and his value to this Agency element is utterly necessary and as previously stated, critical to mission success , and deserving of this recognition.  Mr. Tart’s dedication, ingenuity and hard work are appreciated and valued by the Directorate for Science & Technology Florida Office Leadership and the Virginia Contracting Activity.

Nicholas A. Bachman, Contracting Officer

Rob successfully lead a contract team in the development and execution of baseline project schedules for the USAEDS geophysical field segment providing AFTAC/TT with their first ever fully loaded, executable project schedules. His exceptional leadership drove process changes across TT divisions and AFTAC directorates. His team’s analytic planning activities were critical in helping understand resource constraints, mitigate schedule risk, and evaluate project performance.

Rob also coordinated the construction of an integrated master schedule, and he implemented project performance metrics for the first time ever in AFTAC/TT. These metrics required the coordination and collection of inputs from nearly 30 government and contract team members across multiple projects. Finally, he led his team in the development of a macro and weekly status sheets to support leadership prioritized work and track resource allocations.

“The work Rob and his team has performed is a major milestone as we move forward. I’ve been in the building for 30 years and maybe this is the approach that will modernize how we do business.” — Dave Merker, SES, Director Nuclear Treaty Monitoring, AFTAC/TT
