“Dan was instrumental to the success of the WCM initiative. As the lead Drupal architect, he was able to use his acumen and ability to innovate to establish precedents on the use of Drupal as an enterprise solution across multiple agencies. He solved difficult technical challenges such as around code re-use, patching, multi-tenant architecture design and implementation, and integration. Dan thought strategically and provided the vision behind what the WCM service could become; he helped the team and the government understand technical considerations and trade-offs while pursuing the end goals. He was also able to use his consulting skills to establish relationships across federal agencies and promote collaboration at all levels of the organization to help promote adoption of the enterprise WCM platform. He mentored others and his positive attitude was influential for building a great team. It was truly a pleasure to work with Dan. ”

I just typed "costumers" instead of "customers," and now I wish I were writing a completely different brief.
