How to Support the Hybrid Gov Workforce

Are you ready for the next normal?


Government offices might be reopening, but the workplace will never be the same. In pre-pandemic days, many agencies relied on systems and processes that assumed the majority of employees were on-premises. A year-plus of remote work proved that those services lacked the flexibility, agility and scalability that agencies need.

In this Virtual Summit, we'll share the building blocks of modernization, including a multi-cloud strategy, to better support the modern workforce's emerging requirements and evolving agency missions.

Join us and your public sector peers online Wednesday, July 14 from 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT to 3:40 p.m. ET/12:40 p.m. PT to hear from federal, state, local and industry leaders about how they are overcoming challenges with technology and policy transformation efforts.

Agenda:

[10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT]
GovLoop Welcome!

[10:30-11 a.m. ET/7:30-8 a.m. PT]
Opening Government Panel Discussion: Federal, State and Local Govies Answer: How Will the Workforce Evolve?

Speakers:
  • Traci DiMartini, Chief Human Capital Officer, General Services Administration
  • Sherry Van Sloun, Assistant Director of National Intelligence for Human Capital, Office of the Director of National Intelligence

Technology has fundamentally shifted the way employees can work and the pandemic has shifted where they can work, proving that telework or a hybrid work environment is both possible and perhaps more efficient. In this opening keynote, we'll hear from federal, state and local representatives about the future of the government workforce.

[11:10-11:40 a.m. ET/8:10-8:40 a.m. PT]
Session 1: Enabling Rapid Innovation When Working from Anywhere

Speakers:
  • Cameron Chehreh, Chief Technology Officer / Vice President Pre-Sales Engineering, Dell Technologies, Federal
  • George Strother, Storage Management Branch Chief, Office of the Chief Information Officer, National Information Technology Center, USDA

Agencies store an incredible amount of sensitive personal and private data, but the need to protect this data is often at odds with the flexibility and ease of use of newer, more nimble technologies. New ways of moving to the cloud are providing agencies with the agility they need without sacrificing security. Find out how with our government and industry experts.
[11:50-12:20 p.m. ET/8:50-9:20 a.m. PT]
Session 2: Data Done Right

Speaker: Chakib Chraibi, Ph.D., D.Sc., Chief Data Scientist/Acting Associate Director, Office of Data Services, National Technical Information Service (NTIS), Department of Commerce


Right now the government is collecting an enormous amount of data on the COVID-19 pandemic, adding to the already massive amount of data that it collects. And with a growing number of remote employees who are logging into networks from all over, agencies need to harness data storage capabilities. In this session, you'll learn how gov can utilize the cloud for more effective data storage.
[12:30-1 p.m. ET/9:30-10 a.m. PT]
Session 3: Back, Back, Back It Up Plan

Speakers:
  • Robert Tagalicod, Chief of Cyber Communications and Engagement, Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Information Security
  • Gregg Treml, Assistant Inspector General, Office of Management and Policy, Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
  • Brad Montgomery, Director, Presales Engineering, Federal Data Protection Sales, Dell Technologies


Fires, hurricanes, pandemics, nefarious actors—there are so many potential vulnerabilities for agencies' networks. In a hybrid work environment, emergency preparedness is especially critical because employees may need access to data from across the state or country in response to a disaster. In this session, you'll hear from government and industry experts about how to properly prepare.

[1:10-1:40 p.m. ET/10:10-10:40 a.m. PT]
Lunch Government Keynote: Mission First

Speaker: Nathan Young, Director of Information Technology, Maricopa County Recorder

The fundamental reason to transform any government system, process or even the workforce composition is to better enable the agency to fulfill its mission. In this keynote, you'll hear from a government expert on how to put the mission front and center in any transformation effort.
[1:50-2:20 p.m. ET/10:50-11:20 a.m. PT]
Session 4: No Implicit Trust

Speakers:
  • Dan Carroll, Cybersecurity Practice Lead, Office of the CTO Dell Technologies, Federal
  • Vijay A. D'Souza, Director, Information Technology and Cybersecurity, Government Accountability Office

The U.S. federal government wants data-centric cybersecurity architecture, and is encouraging private industry to follow suit. Using the Zero-Trust guidance issued by the Department of Defense, and the points outlined in a new Executive Order, we’ll discuss what Zero Trust means, how to identify your key priorities, and then how to adapt and adopt a working plan.
[2:30-3 p.m. ET/11:30-12 p.m. PT]
Session 5: How HCI Can Transform Gov

Speakers:
  • Frank Indiviglio, Deputy Director, High Performance Computing and Communications, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
  • Steve Tuomey, Data Center Compute Executive, Dell Federal

Agencies need to move much faster and with a much more integrated infrastructure. One way to achieve this is with hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI). Hear from government and industry experts about how agencies are utilizing a more modern infrastructure in a telework environment.
[3:10-3:40 p.m. ET/12:10-12:40 p.m. PT]
Closing Keynote: What Have We Learned So Far

Speaker: Jenny Rostami, Acting Director for the Centers of Excellence, General Services Administration

For decades, governments have been working hard on the building blocks of massive IT transformation and workforce efforts. What has happened, and what lessons have been learned? In this closing keynote, you'll hear a few real-world examples of how modernization has played out over the last decade and prepared us for the hybrid work environment.
