Eric Ruttenberg, the commanding officer for Space and Naval Warfare Systems Reserve Program (SPAWAR) in San Diego, Calif., will be the new deputy PEO for enterprise systems, according to a Sept. 24 Defense Department announcement.

The leadership change comes as SPAWAR helps the Navy usher in a large commercial cloud services contract being handled by the Government Services Agency. The contract, which hasn’t been awarded as of July, according to DelTek data, is expected to cover up to 95 percent of the Navy's cloud needs.
Ruttenberg will succeed Capt. Donald Harder is a role that oversees the Navy’s $1 billion enterprise IT budget, including the naval enterprise networks and resource planning, the Marines Corps’ global combat support system, software licensing, and data center and application optimization.
