IT management sherpa. Chilbert knows his way through the complex IT management paths at one of the largest federal agencies because he has blazed many of them himself. In addition to providing day-to-day leadership of tech strategy, architecture, governance, policies, and development and oversight of IT initiatives, he oversees strategy, acquisition and governance of more than $6 billion in IT spending at DHS. His ability to manage complex issues such as enterprise architecture, data analytics and IT integration has made him a model for other federal IT managers.
