FSI appoints consulting principal

Federal Sources Inc. officials have hired Dennis Pelehach to serve as principal of consulting for the market research firm.

Pelehach had been director of business services at Booz Allen Hamilton Inc. At FSI, his job will be to provide strategic business development and to lead research projects for FSI clients.

Pelehach said the appeal of moving to a smaller firm is the opportunity to work on a wider variety of projects for shorter periods of time than he had at Booz Allen. At his former employer, "Like [at] most big companies, you get involved in one program for many years," he said.
