Company will also add nearly one million cubic feet of compliant
storage space for Federal customers
BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Iron Mountain Incorporated (NYSE:IRM), a leading provider of storage and
information management services, announced today that Bill O’Neill will
be joining the company as vice president and general manager for Iron
Mountain’s Government Services business. In his new role, O’Neill will
lead Iron Mountain’s efforts to generate growth and market share in the
Federal government sector by delivering records and information
management solutions for the company.
O’Neill has thirty years of technology business experience in the public
sector, including his most recent position as Senior Director for
Hewlett-Packard (HP) Networking, where he drove enterprise, server,
storage and network solutions in addition to converged cloud
infrastructure strategies for defense, civilian and intelligence
community customers. Prior to his role at HP, Mr. O’Neill held senior
sales leadership, operations and solution development positions at
Qwest, Nortel and Raytheon. He serves in board-level positions at
TechAmerica and the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics
Association’s Washington, DC chapter.
“We are privileged to be able to add Bill’s deep experience and
expertise in serving the public sector to lead our federal government
business,” said Ernest Cloutier, executive vice president, U.S. Federal,
Security and Legal for Iron Mountain. “His background in technology and
leadership in the federal community fits with our approach to serving
our Federal customers, looking holistically at their entire enterprise
and partnering with them to deliver solutions that balance the
requirements for protecting information with unlocking the benefit that
their information can provide. He will provide tremendous value to the
company and our Federal customers, and we’re thrilled to have him
leading our government business.”
In addition to the hiring of Mr. O’Neill, Iron Mountain announced a plan
to expand its Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and National Archives
and Records Administration (NARA) compliant storage facilities. The
expansion will add approximately one million cubic feet of federal
records storage capacity across three new geographic markets, increasing
the company’s ability to better serve its agency customers. The company
has also made an investment in a climate-controlled facility located in
its Fredericksburg, VA CFR Facility. The facility provides the ability
to manage vital records requiring secure, climate-controlled CFR storage
environments, providing optimal protection for records against extremes
in temperature, moisture, dust and contaminants.
“This is an exciting time to join Iron Mountain,” said Bill O’Neill. “As
the company continues to make investments that leverage our expertise in
information management and our trusted reputation for security, we can
help federal agencies address the collision of initiatives and looming
deadlines that are intersecting around information management, whether
it’s the FDCCI Mandate, Open Data Policy or the Records Directive. In
addition to the company’s focus on customer service, Iron Mountain is
committed to advancing a diverse and inclusive workforce and actively
seeks to employ veterans, active duty guard members and reservists.
These two commitments are areas of focus for me personally, and were
contributing factors to me taking this position.”
