CIO Crossroads: Lessons from DOE: Foresight and Focus Keep the Grid Humming

Federal IT has earned the status of lifesaver in the COVID-19 pandemic for its ability to deliver vital services to citizens in times of crisis. MeriTalk is chronicling those successes – along with lessons for the future as agencies turn to the next generation of service improvements. In this edition of CIO Crossroads, we examine the Department of Energy five months into the fray.

Tune in on Thursday, September 3 at 1:30 p.m. EDT for a complimentary webinar to hear from CIO Rocky Campione, as he discusses one of DOE’s most recent missions that could not fail – proper functioning of the U.S. power grid during the pandemic. At the same time, see how DOE’s work on big data-driven cybersecurity improvement has continued apace, while the agency is providing supercomputing resources for the new COVID-19 High Performance Computing Consortium – the muscle behind coronavirus vaccine and treatment development.
