After retiring, Jones went on to starting an executive level consulting company focused on helping industry position themselves more competitively for Defense and international contracts. He currently lectures at the Graduate School of Business and Policy at the Naval Postgraduate School, focusing on Defense procurement processes and public policy in Monterey, California.
"Ray brings a tremendous amount of priceless experience with him, especially when it comes to being a leading expert in the procurement, RFP and RFQ process, and TNVOC will leverage his knowledge and expertise to drive beneficial educational based learning webinars and content for VOB and Corporate members of the Coalition," says Ben Fatola, Vice President of TNVOC.
