Prior to this assignment, Honeycutt served as the SLS deputy chief engineer and deputy manager for the SLS Stages Office, and manager of the Space Shuttle External Tank Project. In October 2012, he was appointed to the Senior Executive Service, the personnel system covering top managerial positions in federal agencies.
He has received numerous NASA awards, including the Presidential Rank Award for Distinguished Executive Service, NASA Outstanding Leadership Medal, Exceptional Achievement Medal, Management Space Flight Awareness Award, the Silver Snoopy Award, Silver Achievement Medal, a Center Director’s Commendation, and various group achievement awards.
