Enabling the Frontline: Acquisition, Enterprise Support, and Operational Needs Part 2
Welcome to “HSDF THE PODCAST,” a collection of policy discussions on government technology and homeland security brought to you by the Homeland Security and Defense Forum
What does it take to bring biometrics, non intrusive inspection tech, and AI to 328 ports of entry, hundreds of facilities, and far flung checkpoints you don’t even own? We pull back the curtain on modernization that works in the field, not just on slides, and share how we balance speed, safety, and accountability when the mission changes by the hour.
Featuring:
- Ntina Cooper, Executive Assistant Commissioner, Enterprise Services, CBP
- Jody Hardin, Executive Director, Innovation and Strategy Directorate, Office of Field Operations, CBP
- Earl Lewis, Deputy Assistant Commissioner, Office of Acquisition, CBP
- Ryan Scudder, Former EAC for Enterprise Services, CBP (moderator)
This discussion took place December 12, 2025 at 8th Annual Homeland Security & Defense Forum Border Security Symposium
