The team will be led by David Barboro, general manager, who brings more than 25 years of industry experience in the software, aviation, and aerospace and defense fields including positions at AAR Corporation and JD Edwards. Prior to joining Click Commerce, Barboro spent seven years at ProSight, Inc., a provider of Enterprise Investment Management software, where he held several executive leadership positions including Vice President of the Federal Division, Vice President of Professional Services and Director of Sales. His current responsibilities include providing global strategy, leadership, and business process optimization for the A&D team.
"I'm excited about the talented group of industry veterans we've assembled here at Click Commerce.

"The team's industry knowledge and real-world experience complement the domain expertise, business process knowledge, and sophisticated software that we offer."
Joining Barboro is Ted Anderson, director of solutions marketing, who is responsible for the strategic direction of Click Commerce's complete suite of software solutions for the aviation, aerospace and defense industries.
