Executive Mosaic Announces 2022 Wash100 Award Winners; CEO Jim Garrettson Quoted

Executive Mosaic, the leading provider in connecting, promoting and branding government and government contracting (GovCon) executives of consequence, has announced the winners of the 2022 Wash100 Award, the most prestigious and coveted award in all of GovCon to recognize the 100 executives who will impact the sector in the coming year.

The 2022 Wash100 Award acknowledges the accomplishments of this year’s winners over the past year and recognizes the potential that each awardee possesses heading into the new year to drive innovation as ongoing initiatives in policy, emerging technology and other crucial areas continue to heavily influence the federal landscape.

“For our ninth consecutive year, Executive Mosaic has completed our exhaustive search, and qualification process through thousands of executives in government and GovCon, in order to produce the annual Wash100 list of the elite of the elite,” said Jim Garrettson, founder and CEO of Executive Mosaic as well as the creator of the Wash100 Award.

Executive Mosaic applied an additional lens of adaptability into how each of this year’s winners was selected. The winning executives are considered an essential part of the industry’s backbone that will ensure future continuity, stability of the GovCon industry and government operations throughout the current pandemic lifecycle.

Technology, supply chain, artificial intelligence, digital transformation, cyber security and multidomain capability/support were among the additional factors considered in this year‘s slope of increased difficulty of qualification.
