Unisys adds GSA, Accenture execs

Unisys, the Blue Bell-based IT systems builder government contractor, has hired a top U.S. General Services Administration officer and a 28-year Accenture veteran to beef up its management team.

Casey Coleman, ex-Chief Information Officer at GSA, is the new Group Vice President for Civilian Agencies at Unisys Federal, CEO Peter Altabef said in a statement. She earlier worked at Lockheed Martin and Kana Software.

"Her expertise in areas like cloud mobility, security and IT consolidation fits perfectly," Venkatapathi "PV" Puvvada, president of Unisys Federal, said in a statement. Her Washington contacts and procurement knowledge are no doubt useful to Unisys, too. Coleman called herself a person "with a passion for helping federal govenrment agencies use technology to advance their missions" and "have a significant impact."

Also, Unisys has added Neil Gissler, cormer Glocal Technology Consulting lead at Accenture, as its new Senior Vice President for Servcies. Altabef praised Gissler's union of "leadership capabilities, industry knowledge, consulting experience and technology expertise."
