Fridovich Group, LLC

"Personally, I don’t believe you could find another man with the same experiential base and technological background grown over decades at this point in history, at the most significant Command [SOCOM] leading this effort. The missions his center has routinely contributed towards only make him one of the most unique skilled individuals in the Command and Control, Rapid decision making and informational flow areas that effect the military, industry and business alike."

Deputy, N2C3 at The Joint Staff/J33

"Rich Corson is a treasured national security asset who is one of the nation's top experts on how to establish and maintain a secure command center. Rich has been the lead consultant on modern command center design concepts for many locations across the world to include advising AFRICOM and the National Military Command Center at the Pentagon, for example. Rich has a deep understanding on how to maximize shared situational awareness through creative tool development. As the Joint Staff's lead for situational awareness for current operations I have routinely relied on Rich's depth of expertise in advising me on sound approaches to command and control challenges."

Founding Owner & President/CEO at CWU, Inc

" I have known Rich Corson for over 25 years during his active duty service in U.S. Army Special Forces, his service as a government civilian at SOCOM, and now as a business entrepreneur. Rich is a gifted operational planner and exceptional leader with more than 40 years of strategic and tactical expertise supporting global operations. He possesses a keen insight of the global geo-political conditions that impact U.S. military and foreign policy decisions that have been honed from on-the-ground operational experience. Whether in military uniform or a business suit, Rich is a critical thinker and valuable operational resource that I strongly endorse. He is a selfless and steadfast patriot. I am honored to consider Rich a peer and friend. "

Independent Consultant

"Rich is the consummate professional. His knowledge of operations center development, construction and management is unparalleled. He possesses the skills to run any type of operations or information management centers and the ability to communicate, share and teach others how to do it. A recognized expert in this field, you’ll get decades of experience at your disposal. On top of that he’s a true leader, mentor and coach. He will not disappoint."

Independent Consultant

"Rich worked for me for several years as the technical SME for our SOCOM (4 Star) operations center. His insight, focus on mission accomplishment, and creativity were invaluable to our operational capability. He always sought better ways to employ technology with both operator and senior leader efficiency in mind. For those looking to improve their IT operations, I highly recommend Rich!"

Principal Scientist at MITRE

"I had the privilege of working with Rich Corson at Headquarters United States Special Operations Command. He has a wealth of experience-driven knowledge on command center operations, training, operational assessments, and enabling technologies. He has a deep understanding of how to make command center personnel effective, and what the senior leaders they support need. His approach is to focus on the essential requirements to be met, which often can be obscured by hype over the latest technology that promises improved human effectiveness. Rich strips all that away and focuses on what really needs to get done to accomplish the mission."
