Westinghouse Ramps Up New Government Services Business

ARLINGTON, Va.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–In the latest action to accelerate its return to the government services
marketplace, Westinghouse Electric Company announced today the opening
of a new Washington, D.C., area office that serves as headquarters for
its Westinghouse Government Services LLC business. Industry and
government officials joined Westinghouse in marking the establishment of
the office at a June 6 open house hosted by the company.

“We are renewing Westinghouse’s decades-long legacy of supporting vital
U.S. government operations, and we are pleased to re-establish our
presence in Washington with a highly qualified team to assist federal
agencies such as the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in achieving their
strategic priorities,” said David Durham, Westinghouse senior vice
president, New Projects Business.

Westinghouse Government Services will support U.S. government needs by
applying the company’s advanced technologies and capabilities in nuclear
operations and decommissioning, and in engineering, procurement and
construction management (EPCM). It is currently a partner in managing
operations of the DOE depleted uranium hexafluoride (DUF6)
conversion facilities in Ohio and Kentucky, and is involved in teaming
relationships to bid several multibillion-dollar DOE site operations and
decommissioning contracts.

The Westinghouse Government Services team includes experienced leaders Cathy
Hickey, who serves as president, and Jon Greenert and Bob
Cochran, who serve as members of its board of directors. Durham and
Hickey also serve as board members; Greenert is the board’s chairman.

Hickey joined Westinghouse Government Services from CH2M, where she
served as vice president of Business Development and manager of
Reindustrialization at the East Tennessee Technology Park. She was
responsible for developing and managing strategic business pursuits,
with a primary focus on opportunities with the DOE Office of
Environmental Management. Hickey also supported DOE in leasing and
transferring non-mission-essential assets from the former gaseous
diffusion plant in Oak Ridge to the Community Reuse Organization of East
Tennessee (CROET) and continues to serve as the current chairwoman of
the CROET Board of Directors.

Her previous positions included leading multiple proposal and capture
efforts for environmental management, nuclear decommissioning and
national security projects in the United States and United Kingdom
valued in the tens of billions of dollars. She also served in project
leadership roles for site management contractors at various DOE sites,
including the Y-12 National Security Complex, Oak Ridge National
Laboratory and East Tennessee Technology Park. She has extensive
experience in community and stakeholder involvement, and served on
multiple boards for DOE prime contractors.

Greenert served as chief of Naval Operations, the most senior officer in
the U.S. Navy, prior to his retirement in October 2015. He is a Naval
Academy graduate who began his 40-year Navy career in the nuclear
submarine force, serving on five submarines. Greenert’s major command
assignments before becoming chief of Naval Operations included the USS
Honolulu, U.S. Naval Forces Marianas, Submarine Squadron 11, U.S.
Seventh Fleet (Japan), U.S. Fleet Forces and vice chief of Naval
Operations. He was appointed in April 2016 to the board of BAE Systems
Inc.

Cochran has served as president of Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services
Group Inc. Other previous leadership roles included president and chief
executive officer of MAGma LLC, senior vice president of Tyco
Infrastructure and president of Kaiser Group International. In addition,
Cochran has served on multiple boards for DOE, Department of Defense and
NASA prime contractors, and currently serves as consultant to a small
business that works across the DOE complex.
