Among his previous roles with Direct Technology, Konieczny has served as president of Launch Consulting (which spun out of Direct Technology in 2016) and, more recently, as president of ESG, an energy efficiency software company under Direct Technology. In his new role, he will continue to run ESG and will also also oversee two other key divisions: Direct Technology’s Government Solutions, operated by Senior Vice President Davood Ghods; and IT Services, operated by Director Nick Saechow.

“I’m thrilled to pass the torch to someone who has tackled the toughest challenges time and again,” said former CEO Rick Nelson, who now serves on the board of DT's parent, TA Group Holdings. “Everything he touches, he makes better. Dan is the perfect leader to continue the growth trajectory of Direct Technology.”

With a background in systems engineering, Konieczny began his career with Electronic Data Systems; after five years, he moved to Andersen Consulting/Accenture, where he remained for 14 years, progressing to partner. He joined DT 10 years ago and lives in Roseville with his family.
