Kick-off Meeting with the FISC Team

I just came back from my first kick-off meeting with the Federal Integration Solutions Centre (FISC – formerly the Government Solutions Centre). The centre is located in McLean, so now I have available office space in Bethesda, on K Street and in McLean.
It was a good meeting where we aligned our expectations for the next four months and set up some milestones for my work with the FISC. The deal is that I will spend one or two days a week with the team to get a thorough understanding of the IBM software portfolio and how that maps to e.g. the Technical Reference Model (TRM) and the solutions that IBM has for the public sector. FISC might be a bit more software focused than my normal interest areas, but the team seems extremely competent in the EA field, so I am sure it will be good for my EA-education!
