Established by Garrettson in 2014, the Wash100 honors the most impactful and influential executives shaping the government contracting industry. Selected through a competitive review process, these awardees exemplify visionary leadership and show strong potential to achieve more in pushing innovation in the GovCon field in the coming year.
Forging Industry Partnerships to Advance Military Tech
Jackson earned his second consecutive Wash100 Award this year in recognition of his remarkable leadership that resulted in SAIC forming strategic partnerships to drive defense innovation and securing major IT contracts in support of U.S. military missions.
“Josh has spent the last two decades at SAIC firmly establishing himself as one of the most influential execs in defense contracting — and it’s finally paid off with two consecutive Wash100 recognitions,” said Garrettson. “His leadership continues to position SAIC as a trusted partner in advancing the Army’s technological capabilities.”
