Maj. Gen. Jon A. Maddux assumed charter for the Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI) on May 13.

Maddux comes to PEO STRI from Washington, D.C., where he was assistant military deputy to the Honorable Heidi Shyu, assistant secretary of the Army (Acquisition, Logistics and Technology).

“After 13 years in sustained conflict, the Army is in a period of transition,” Maddux said upon assuming responsibility of PEO STRI. “We’re transitioning from an Army of execution to an Army of preparation while migrating toward the future. PEO STRI will help achieve this goal of a leaner, more agile, more expeditionary force – while maintaining combat overmatch – in a heightened fiscally responsible manner.”

As the program executive officer for PEO STRI, Maddux oversees the acquisition, development and fielding of the Army’s simulation, training and instrumentation devices, a multi-billion dollar portfolio of programs managed by 1,200 military, government, civilian and support contractors.
