2024年9月30日 - 9:00PM
Mattermost, Inc., a leader in delivering the secure, real-time
collaboration and workflow tools that modern defense, security and
intelligence teams need to maintain command, control, and
operational tempo, is pleased to announce the appointment of
Matthew Heideman as Vice President of Public Sector.
In this critical role, Matthew will spearhead and accelerate
growth within Mattermost’s public sector business, focusing on
driving adoption among an expanding customer base and key
prospects. Leveraging Mattermost's highly skilled sales team,
trusted partners, and consultants, Matthew will help ensure
seamless integration with existing Microsoft investments, enhancing
operational efficiency across the Department of Defense. His
efforts will maximize Mattermost's potential in supporting the
DoD’s evolving mission requirements, addressing global challenges
where legacy systems may no longer suffice.
Effective theater of operations requires constant alignment
coupled with a high security standard, but legacy systems and
today’s common collaboration solutions designed for the needs of
enterprise IT often leave gaps that require compromises for
operational teams. Mattermost allows teams to eliminate the
communication barriers that can cost organizations their
decision-making advantage in high-stakes environments. Trusted by
teams within organizations including the U.S. Air Force, U.S. Space
Force, and NASA, Mattermost provides secure, sovereign, real-time
information access that can be deployed anywhere to support rapid
decision-making.
Matthew brings his distinguished background within industry
leaders including Lockheed Martin, Deloitte, and Red Hat. He has
deep expertise in the Federal enterprise market, particularly in
the areas of Mission IT, cybersecurity, and Governance Risk &
Compliance (GRC). His comprehensive understanding of these domains,
along with his ability to traverse both Government and Commercial
sectors, positions him to execute strategic initiatives that
resonate with Federal intelligence agencies, the Department of
Defense, and the Department of Justice, further solidifying the
company’s footprint in the Federal space.
"Matthew’s leadership and on-the-ground experience in the
Federal market will be crucial in addressing the complex challenges
our customers face," said Corey Hulen, CEO of Mattermost Federal,
Inc. "With his proven ability to navigate the intricacies of the
public sector, convene key stakeholders, and build consensus,
Matthew will help us solve the operational and technological
hurdles our Federal customers encounter. His expertise will ensure
we deliver tailored solutions that drive efficiency, enhance
mission readiness, and provide unmatched value to our Federal
partners.”
In his role, Matthew will be responsible leading and growing the
public sector team and ensuring Mattermost is positioned as the
go-to platform for empowering government agencies to make faster,
more informed decisions through secure collaboration and
streamlined workflows, directly addressing their operational needs.
His ability to navigate the complexities of Government and
Commercial environments will be key to fostering partnerships and
securing projects vital to national security and innovation.
"Customers are using Mattermost to deliver real-time
mission-critical information to a set of operators across
organizations. They are able to correlate and fuse information in
the Mattermost platform,” said Matthew. “The opportunity to lead
our efforts in driving adoption within the Federal sector, while
collaborating with some of the most respected brands and agencies,
is both an honor and a challenge I am eager to embrace. I look
forward to helping our customers achieve the missions society
depends upon."
