Davidson has secured a position on a Department of Defense contract vehicle worth $249 million that seeks to facilitate the rapid deployment of artificial intelligence, machine learning and data science professionals to support national security missions.
Advancing Algorithmic Warfare
The company said Tuesday its selection for the DOD’s five-year AI Talent 2.0 basic ordering agreement seeks to reflect its role in advancing algorithmic warfare and trusted AI tools and enables it to provide cleared technical talent for the department’s critical programs.
According to Davidson, the award also complements its expanding investments in internal research and development, advanced decision support systems and secure edge AI technologies.
“We see AI Talent 2.0 as a natural extension of our commitment to operationalizing trusted AI and accelerating decision advantage for the warfighter,” said Walter Hough, vice president of algorithmic warfare at Davidson. “This is about delivering the right algorithms, in the right battlespace, at the right time.”
AI Talent 2.0 On-Ramp
In May 2024, the DOD reopened the solicitation for AI Talent 2.0 to on-ramp additional vendors to the contract vehicle.
Services covered by the acquisition program include project management, logistics, administration, cybersecurity, SecDevOps, cyber analytics and Agile development.
