NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Oct. 2, 2023 – ITA International (ITA), a leader in tech-enabled professional services, is pleased to announce the appointment of two new vice presidents of customer solutions, Brian Long and Tyler Barhydt. This strategic move emphasizes ITA’s unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction and company growth.

Mike Melo, CEO of ITA, expressed his enthusiasm for the company’s new direction, “At ITA, our focus is squarely on customer satisfaction and continued growth. We are delighted to welcome Brian and Tyler to our team, as they will play integral roles in driving our business development efforts forward.”

In this role, Long and Barhydt will collaborate with industry partners and government customers to identify technology-enabled, tailored solutions to meet mission needs. Barhydt will be working under the leadership of Jon Greene, president of Innovative Solutions, to shape the business unit’s strategies for developing and implementing innovative solutions that drive growth and enhance the company’s market presence. Long will provide vital support to Mike Akhbari, president of Operational Support, in aligning current contracts with new opportunities to further expand ITA’s impact in the industry.

Long brings a wealth of leadership experience from various organizations, including Colonna’s Shipyard, Oceantech Services, Booz Allen Hamilton, Computer Sciences Corporation and i-Mazing Solutions. His expertise in advanced analytics, financial analysis, business development and consulting positions him as a key player in integrating current contracts with new opportunities. Long holds a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Christopher Newport University and a master’s degree in business administration from the College of William and Mary.

Barhydt joins ITA from Booz Allen Hamilton, where he managed several corporate partnerships. He also has a distinguished background as a U.S. Navy cryptologic warfare officer, serving on active duty from 2013 to 2018. He currently holds the rank of Lt. Commander in the Selected Reserve, supporting the U.S. Navy’s 2nd Fleet based out of Norfolk. He is a graduate of Occidental College, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Chinese Studies, and holds a master’s of business administration from Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business.
