On September 4, Arlington, VA-based Decisive Analytics Corporation (DAC) announced the addition of Edward Morris to their leadership team as vice president for commercial space.
Morris joins DAC after serving as
senior director for launch system programs at Stratolaunch Systems Corporation,
where he had responsibility for technical performance and contract delivery of
commercial space launch systems for satellite customers. Previously, Morris
earned 14 years of experience at Orbital Sciences in a variety of space program
leadership roles. Morris’ distinguished public service includes a senior
executive service appointment as Executive Director, Office of Space
Commercialization in the Department of Commerce and as military reserve advisor
to the Under Secretary of the Air Force for Space.
At DAC, Morris will utilize his
wealth of experience in commercial and national security space leading the
development and analysis of future space concepts and architectures.
“As our defense and intelligence customers shift strategies to leverage private investment in commercial space systems, Ed’s 30 plus years of space experience will help our government customers buy commercial services smartly, while helping commercial space companies better understand defense and intelligence needs,” said Dr. Terry Jaggers, DAC’s chief scientist and former deputy assistant secretary of defense for science, technology & engineering.
