Donald H. Foley, Ph.D.

Executive Vice President, Special International Assignment

Since July 2005, as a direct report to SAIC's CEO, Donald Foley, Ph.D. has been responsible for the successful completion of SAIC's complex, 250 million euro Olympic and Post-Olympic C4I (Command, Control, Communications, Coordination and Integration) Contract with the Government of Greece. In March 2007 Foley successfully negotiated a major modification focusing the system on the post-Olympic needs of the Ministry of Public Order. In October 2008 SAIC successfully delivered the entire C4I System, enabling it to become a significant part of the Public Safety System for the City of Athens and eight major ports throughout Greece. The system includes a large number of fixed and mobile command centers, incident response systems, local area and wide area data and video networks and a single encrypted telecommunications network for over 20,000 users in the Hellenic Police, Fire Brigade, Coast Guard and Ambulance Service. SAIC will continue to deliver Integrated Logistics Support and cellular network services until 2014.

From 2002 until 2007, Foley served on the SAIC Board of Directors. As an SAIC director, he helped steer SAIC through the successful transition from SAIC's founder and CEO for 35 years to a new leadership team. As a member of both the old and new leadership teams, Foley helped SAIC transform its capital structure via a successful $1.2 billion IPO in October 2006. Foley was a member of the Board of Directors of Telcordia Technologies (formerly Bellcore).

From 2005 until 2006, Foley served as SAIC's first chief engineering and technology officer responsible for the development, oversight, and implementation of corporate technology and engineering policies.

From 1991 until 2005, Foley served as group president of the Research & Intelligence Group. He was responsible for over $2 billion in annual revenues, seven business units, over 10,000 personnel, and more than 100 operating locations worldwide. During his tenure as group president, he consistently maintained a strong technology focus while delivering a compound annual growth rate of twenty percent.

From 1986 to 1991 Foley was the Director of DARPA's Special Programs Office. He led DARPA's development activities in next-generation sensors and signal processing. From 1972 to 1985, as one of three key executives at PAR Technology Corporation, Foley guided this startup company through a successful public offering, with a post-IPO market capitalization of $150 million.

Foley received his bachelor's and master's degree in electrical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) and his doctorate in electrical and computer engineering from Syracuse University. The IEEE honored him for his work in statistical pattern recognition. In 1996, WPI presented him the Hobart Newell Award for Outstanding Electrical and Computer Engineering Alumnus, and in 2001 WPI awarded him the Robert H. Goddard Alumni Award for extraordinary professional achievement.
