BRIDGEPORT, WEST VIRGINIA — Trilogy Innovations, Inc., named by Inc. magazine as the fastest-growing company in West Virginia for the past two consecutive years, continues to strengthen its leadership team with the appointment of Bill McKenna as Vice President of Strategic Growth. McKenna will start in his new position in August.
“Bill’s role at Trilogy is crucial to ensure we stay aligned with our customers and their needs in this fast-moving industry,” said Trilogy CEO and Co-Founder Brandon Downey. “We couldn’t be more pleased to welcome Bill and to leverage his immense expertise to achieve that endeavor.”
With more than 15 years of experience in the Federal Information Technology arena, McKenna has significantly contributed to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of State, and the Department of Justice (DOJ). In his previous role as the lead business development executive at World Wide Technology (WWT) for Federal law enforcement agencies, he demonstrated skill in aligning technology solutions with the strategic objectives of these critical federal entities. His expertise has been instrumental in implementing key initiatives and policies, including Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, FedRAMP, TIC 3.0, and Executive Orders 14028, 14058, and 14110.
McKenna’s role during the COVID-19 pandemic was pivotal, as he led the deployment of thousands of employees to work from home using Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) technology. His work on Operation Warp Speed, which involved IT deployments for multiple agencies, including DHS, the Department of Health and Human Services, and DOJ, was particularly noteworthy. These efforts underscore his ability to respond effectively to critical and emergent situations, ensuring continuity and efficiency in operations.
“What we have in Bill is an individual who knows the IT industry in both the public and private sectors,” Downey said. “That knowledge, combined with his many other skills, will help continue strengthening our leadership, while further growing Trilogy’s presence in the industry. We are confident that his extensive experience and strategic vision will drive significant success for the company.”
McKenna holds a degree in Political Science from West Virginia Wesleyan College and is pursuing a master’s degree in Homeland Security at George Washington University, where he is set to graduate in December. He and his wife, Melissa, recently relocated to Morgantown, West Virginia, as part of the WV Ascend Program.
