Hundreds of nominations were submitted, and our panel of government and industry judges deliberated for hours. The result? A list of 100 women and men introducing what is possible in federal IT.
Every year, it is a tremendous privilege to review all of these stories. The group of nominations showcases a wide range of important work being done throughout the community, and there are always more unique individuals than a list of 100 can afford. That is exactly what happened this time.
You’ll have the opportunity to learn more about each of this year’s winners in the coming months-through profiles we’ll publish in FCW magazine and on FCW.com, and in person on our May 12 Evening of Honors to celebrate both Fed 100 winners and Government Hall of Fame inductees. However, for now, you need to make the list of names, which you will see below.
Congratulations to each of the 2022 Federal 100:
