Creative Computing Solutions names Suzanne Petrie Liscouski to homeland security position

Creative Computing Solutions (CCSi), a provider of program management services to the federal government, announced on Jan. 23 the appointment of Suzanne Petrie Liscouski to be its director of homeland security. In this role, Liscouski will build on the company's solid program management experience in DHS to secure more advanced security and enterprise systems architecture projects.

"For 20 years, our DHS customers have entrusted CCSi with their most complex program management and IT challenges -- and as partners we've achieved mission success every time," said Naren Bewtra, chief operating officer and president of CCSi. "The breadth and depth of Suzanne's experience, coupled with her passion for supporting our nation's security, make her a perfect addition to our team, as we foster our growing partnership with the DHS."

Liscouski brings to the position more than 15 years of experience in the Pentagon, White House and DHS, to strengthen CCSi's current programs and future efforts. Her government portfolio included counter-terrorism, counter-narcotics, border and maritime security and the full range of policy issues, in coordination with each of the DHS components and foreign partners, and with a focus on Mexico and Latin America.

Liscouski has served as a subject matter expert and liaison between senior agency officials, the executive branch and foreign government counterparts, and was involved in the early policy and planning stages of the U.S. Northern Command.

"One of the primary reasons I chose to work with CCSi is that they are fully dedicated to serving their federal customers -- senior leadership and staff, alike -- they truly believe it is the right thing to do for their country," said Liscouski. "This unwavering focus that lies in the nexus of defense and security directly aligns with my values as a professional. I am elated to continue my career supporting the homeland security mission with CCSi."

Most recently, Liscouski served as business development director for international and homeland security accounts for TASC, Inc. At TASC, she provided strategic business development counsel and support for the organization’s homeland security and defense department pursuits, including strategy around multi-billion dollar IDIQ proposal efforts.
