IT philosophyPradhan’s IT philosophy focuses on people first, innovation, agility and driving business value. He believes that technology is first about people. Technology based Innovation is his second theme. He believes that Chief Information Officers (CIOs) have a dual role to play as Chief Innovation Officers. This aspect focuses on creating an innovation life cycle within organizations consisting of ideation and crowd sourcing tools like DOT’s IdeaHub,[5] a process for selection of best ideas, a cloud based agility platform for quick deployment of “apps” that drive business value, an Amazon.com-like IT business catalogue, with a one-stop shop for basic, premium, and fee-for-service IT offerings,[6] and an IT Vital Signs dashboard that measures progress.[7] Finally, he has promoted the concept of new IT—IT 2.0,[8] as he calls it, is based on immediately providing significant public value and business value, and Everything as a Service (EAAS).[9] He is a strong proponent of using technology to deliver business results, for example; using emerging innovations like Intelligent Transportation Systems and DOT’s Connected Vehicles Program[10] designed to leverage vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), driverless cars, and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) wireless communication in order to make driving safer by making cars, trucks, buses and other vehicles aware of the vehicles around them, even if the drivers aren't.[11] CareerPre Obama Administration CareerPradhan also supported initiatives launched in the DC metro region in the mid-nineties; including Potomac Knowledge Way[12] and Netpreneur,[13] established by the Morino Institute,[14] and the creation and expansion of the Northern Virginia Technology Council (NVTC)[15] a membership and trade association for the technology community in Northern Virginia, now the largest technology council in the nation, currently serving about 1,000 organizations. After CIT, Pradhan co-founded a wireless startup and was the CEO in early 2000. Obama Administration CareerIn 2009, Pradhan joined DOT as its CIO.

Post Obama Administration CareerIn September 2012, Pradhan established the nation’s first Federal Technology Accelerator and Partner Consortium called Public Private Innovations (PPI).[29] The goal of PPI is to drive public value through private growth by researching and analyzing government problems and matching them with business technology solutions; nurturing, adapting, and deploying technology platforms, products, and services for the federal marketplace and starting, building and growing government practices for new or existing IT contractors and technology suppliers.[30] In, March 2013, Pradhan cofounded GOVonomy.com, an emerging products technology marketplace focused on the public sector. GOVonomy’s goal is to drive increased public value by regularly introducing cost-effective, cutting-edge, targeted technologies that specifically address the challenges and opportunities facing the public sector. GOVonomy connects public organizations with new technology products/services from growth companies and helps arrange strategic discussions, demonstrations and pilots for increased understanding, education, purchasing integration of the emerging technology products for the public sector.[31] Professional recognitionFor his work at the Department of Transportation, Pradhan and the DOT were awarded:
