The Barnes Global Advisors (TBGA), headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA, has appointed Andy Davis as Director of Government Programs and Ethan Clare as Project Manager.
In his role as Director of Government Programs, Davis will lead strategy and execution as TBGA supports government customers with increased resilience of the defence industrial base. He was most recently the Deputy Program Director and Chief Technology Officer for the Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment Program (IBAS) within the Office of the Secretary of Defense. Prior to this, Davis served as the Global Technology Advisor for the US Army covering all of Europe and parts of Africa.
