During her tenure as President of ASI, Ms. McCabe has helped reposition the company's professional services solutions in response to changes in the federal landscape. She has continued to expand the company's core capabilities to include acquisition, program management, and strategy and organizational performance. Understanding the critical importance of collaboration and communication across the big "A" Acquisition community, she has intensified the focus on solutions that help "bridge the gap" between program and contract procurement teams.

Prior to joining ASI, Ms. McCabe served as the Acting Deputy Director of the Office of Business Transformation (OBT) in the Headquarters, Department of the Army supporting the Under Secretary of the Army/Chief Management Officer. During her time in the Pentagon, she worked with the Army's senior leaders to guide one of the most momentous transformations in history – the transformation of the Army's business operations.

"Kymm has been with ASI for nearly a year and has already made a tremendous contribution to its transformation. Reflecting her acute understanding of the federal community, she's helped advance new thinking in the company to more proactively address agency needs. Her insight, innovation and passion are a perfect combination to lead ASI into the future. I look forward to working with her and the Board in my new role as Chairman to contribute to the company's ability to serve our government," commented Ms. Reed.

"I am honored to work with such an exceptional team of professionals, as we continue to deliver value while creating client experiences that are unexpected by design," shared Ms. McCabe. "Anne has been instrumental in paving the way for this transition in ASI's leadership and while she will no longer be engaged in day-to-day operations, ASI and our clients will continue to benefit from her vision and experience in her new position as Chairman of the Board. Both she and Ann Costello have helped build ASI into an organization that's respected for its commitment to serve the government, valued for its innovative thinking, and trusted to deliver superior results. I look forward to building on that strong foundation as we continue to think outside the box to help agencies drive more value out of every tax dollar in support of their vital missions."

Ann Costello added, "Personally, and on behalf of my former partners, Chip Mather and Bob Welch, we could not be more proud of the positive impact the entire ASI family has had on the agencies with whom we have worked. The company has come a long way since its founding 15 years ago. While I will deeply miss ASI, I am excited to start a new chapter in my life and leave confident that with Kymm's strategic vision and passion for public service, and Anne's leadership of the Board, ASI could not be in better hands."
