“With his input and counsel, the Taqtile team will continue its journey to make Manifest more effective, deployable, and useful to our military customers.”

Over his distinguished career, General Schwartz has held numerous leadership positions in Korea, Germany, and the U.S. Among his roles was the command of Fort Hood in Texas, the third largest military base in the U.S., with a staff of 217,000 people, including 45,000 active military personnel. At Fort Hood, Schwartz saw the need for a better way to capture and utilize the expertise of skilled operators and maintainers.

“Years ago, I envisioned a solution enabling military personnel to perform maintenance tasks and SOPs (standard operating procedures), even unfamiliar ones, consistently and safely at high proficiency levels,” stated General Schwartz. “Taqtile has created the solution that I envisioned and has taken the idea farther than I could have imagined. As the speed with which systems and equipment become more complex, there is an immediate and acute need across our armed forces to ensure readiness and operational continuity. To this end, Manifest delivers capabilities on-demand.”

Manifest is designed to empower industrial workers and military personnel to complete often complex procedures more consistently and accurately by decreasing cognitive load and stress. Personnel responsible for Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) and preventative maintenance and inspection procedures experience exceptional benefits from the Manifest platform, including access to real-time remote assistance from experts who can guide staff through complex tasks.

“It is truly an honor to have General Schwartz involved with Taqtile. In addition to being a genuine American hero and icon, when it comes to addressing the challenges of our modern military, there are few people on the planet as knowledgeable as General Schwartz,” said Dirck Schou, Co-founder and CEO of Taqtile. “With his input and counsel, the Taqtile team will continue its journey to make Manifest more effective, deployable, and useful to our military customers.”

He received a Silver Star, the Bronze Star, and a Purple Heart during his service in Vietnam. He earned three Master’s degrees: one in Education from Duke University; another in Personnel Management from Salve Regina University; and a third in Strategic Studies from the Naval War College. He also served as Chairman of the Board for the Military Child Education Coalition (MCEC), dedicated to supporting all military-connected children by educating, advocating, and collaborating to resolve education challenges associated with the military lifestyle.
