David Hutchison Appointed Chief Growth Officer at Tech7
Apogee has recently proclaimed the promotion of David Hutchison to the role of Chief Growth Officer (CGO) at The Tech7 Company, placing him in a pivotal position to propel growth under the mentorship of the Small Business Administration (SBA) Mentor-Protégé Program.
Since 2022, Apogee has been the guiding mentor to Tech7, facilitating their transition into a significant service provider for governmental contracts. This move underscores Apogee's dedication not only to its own growth but also to uplifting its protégé, Tech7, as Hutchison leverages his extensive experience to carve a path of success for the company.
Tech7 stands as an SBA-certified 8(a) Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB), as well as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB). The dynamic collaboration between Tech7 and Apogee aims to broaden market reach and capture new segments under the jointly established Tech7 Apogee Solutions Joint Venture (TAS-JV).
Under Hutchison’s able leadership, Apogee has successfully captured over $1 billion in new business opportunities through the GSA OASIS Small Business Program. His role has been crucial in not only acquiring new contracts but also in executing innovative human capital strategies which have distinguished Apogee in a competitive marketplace.
With numerous upcoming contracts under GSA OASIS+, the TAS-JV is strategically poised to become a leading supplier in various sectors including air, space, and cyber defense. Predictions indicate further successful contract awards in advisory management, technical engineering, and intelligence services sectors within the GSA OASIS+ framework, which aligns with their 8(a), SDVOSB, and Small Business Pools.
Apogee’s President and CEO, Frank Varga, highlights the uniqueness of this initiative, stating, “Apogee is achieving what no other mentor has accomplished, by integrating one of our top growth agents into Tech7. This progress is a vital element of our mentorship strategy and signifies the commitment both companies have towards achieving unprecedented growth.
