Buster Barksdale is a Mechanical Engineer who is a Certified Energy Manager with over 44 years of energy management experience and has served at all organizational and functional levels. His service started in 1978 as an Energy Manager for the US Air Force. Since then, he has performed engineering, energy management, construction management, performance contracts, facility operations and consulted on government energy policy and procurement procedures. His experiences in the Air Force led him to evaluate and inspect maintenance for 20 installations, which developed into a study that revised how the Air Force performed maintenance. Upon retiring from the Air Force, he continued in all aspects of energy management with a specific emphasis on control systems and the development of analysis techniques. For 25 years, he has applied the techniques he learned in the Air Force to incorporate best maintenance practices into a monitoring commission with meters and control systems. This experience has been poured into the Army metering program, which has developed analysis tools that the energy managers could use to do their job easier and better. Over 45 tools have been developed, with five additional in development. The professional development program led by Buster and Kecia Pierce received the International Energy Professional Develop Award for the Association of Energy Engineers in 2019. Buster is a CEM, CSDP, CDSM, Fellow Society of American Military Engineers, Fellow Association of Energy Engineers (AEE), Hall of Fame AEE, Past President of AEE, Board of Directors AEE.

Kecia Pierce is a Software Scientist and Project Manager who has over 33 years of requirements analysis, structured design, product/project management, and implementation leadership experience, thus giving her a strong technical background and a solid understanding of geospatial energy infrastructure management systems, including Outage and Incident Management. Kecia has worked with over 170 utilities and communications companies worldwide, leading to an in-depth knowledge of requirements and supporting technology in the energy geospatial software industry. Kecia has been published in various industry magazines and publications, such as Transmission and Distribution World, GeoWorld, and Geospatial Today. Kecia is a Project Management Institute Certified Project Management Professional, and has served with Energy Huntsville, GEO Huntsville, the GITA conference committee, and the GITA Board of Directors. Kecia has served as the Outreach Strategist for the US Army's Meter Data Management System (MDMS) since October 2016. She provides the services of a communications strategist, technical writer, and trainer for educating US Army Energy Managers in using the MDMS to prioritize their energy conservation actions, and verify energy savings. Kecia prepares and leads the MDMS training webinars, tutorials, and the MDMS Update newsletter that notifies the Army end-user community of advancements, changes, and other pertinent facts about the Army Meter Program.
