ABOUT

Neal A. Levene

My career has been consulting that helps organizations through change: as the CEO of three companies, as a turnaround consultant to CEOs of mid-size federal contractors, and as a director leading growth at Siemens and other federal contractors. I meet people where they are, and I have found that focus and a plan that fits a company's culture achieve more than a search for the perfect solution.

Career

I founded InnovaTech as a spinout from GDIT, funded it through a private stock placement I wrote myself, and grew it to about $12M in revenue with largely employee ownership. I later led Levene Strategies, where CEOs of $50M to $300M firms hired me to turn around their growth.

Company Leadership

I directed proposal organizations at four federal contractors. At Siemens Government Technologies, my department managed about $500M a year and won the $829M Guantanamo Bay energy-savings performance contract. At SENTEL, I led the company's largest win, a $180M Army logistics contract.

Growth Leadership

I began my career in data and analysis at American Management Systems, Vector Research, and Veridian, where I ran a 50-person data warehousing and business intelligence department. I maintained a 13-year relationship with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office across roles and a spin-out company.
