Executive Mosaic recognizes Talcove for his efforts to create innovative technology solutions, advance the public safety’s mission and drive growth for the company. His first Wash100 Award, the most coveted and prestigious award in government contracting, demonstrates the level of expertise and leadership that Talcove brings to the GovCon industry.
