Ira joined Deloitte in August 2003 as National Director in the firm’s US Federal Practice. In this role he developed Deloitte’s client service capabilities across Defense and Civilian sectors. He currently serves as Deloitte’s Federal marketplace leader with specific responsibilities for work in Federal Civilian agencies.

In this capacity Ira was responsible for GAO operations, including performance management, strategic planning, financial management, quality assurance, workforce development and information systems. Previously, he served as Acting Associate Commissioner of Social Security for Family Assistance, with oversight of the $14 billion Aid to Families with Dependent Children (cash welfare) Program. Ira also served as Director of the Secretary’s Policy Statement Staff at the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (now Health and Human services).
