In that role, he is responsible for research, development and system acquisition support of intelligence and information systems, which support numerous DoD and Intelligence Community sponsors.

He was responsible for key stakeholder and sponsor relations and work-program shaping across the NSEC’s business operations, as well as advancing the Center’s overall strategy.

Earlier, Mr. Haller was senior vice president of the Command and Control Center (C2C), the second operating center within the NSEC. He was responsible for integration, partnerships, and transformation, including the identification, initiation, and execution of joint activities. In addition, he initiated and led the C2C’s partnerships with other DoD FFRDCs.

In 2004, Mr. Haller was appointed senior vice president and general manager of the Washington Command, Control, and Communications Center. In this position, he was responsible for the overall direction of work conducted for the U.S. Army, Navy, Defense Information Systems Agency, Missile Defense Agency, Office of the Secretary of Defense, Office of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and other members of the national security community.

From 1998 to 2001, he was director of the Economic and Decision Analysis Center, MITRE’s “center of technical excellence” for decision support, economic analysis, analysis of alternatives, business case analysis, acquisition support, information technology portfolio analysis, investment strategy development, and CIO support.

From 1997 to 1998, Mr. Haller was chief engineer of the Naval Systems and Technology Division. In this position, he helped to shape the division’s technical work program, increasing its overall quality and impact and strengthening connections between the work program and MITRE’s research activities.

Mr. Haller periodically leads special studies. In 2006 and 2010, he led an independent technical review of a major classified DoD acquisition program, leading to significant program adjustments and added risk reduction funding.

In 2000 and 2001, he was the lead analyst on the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense C3I Information Superiority Investment Strategy initiative. This effort developed and executed a process for prioritizing needed capabilities and was used as a basis for input to the 2001 DoD Quadrennial Defense Review. He also co-led the ISR Mix Study in support of C4ISR Mission Assessment performed for the Office of the Secretary of Defense. The study’s results were used in support of the 1997 Quadrennial Defense Review.
