Defense technology contractors Booz Allen Hamilton and Palantir are entering a "co-creation partnership to accelerate defense mission innovation and help the U.S. maintain superiority against its adversaries," the companies announced Friday.
The move will build on previous “strategic collaborations” between Palantir and Booz Allen, and its initial focus will center on two “critical components,” the release said.
Those include driving information infrastructure modernization and secure interoperability, as well as the rapid acceleration of integrated warfighting operations through data-centric systems improving combined mission planning with U.S. allies and partners, according to the release.
“We’re partnering with Booz Allen Hamilton to create a future where AI-infused hardware keeps our allies safe and our enemies scared,” Alex Karp, Palantir co-founder and CEO, said in a statement accompanying the release.
Horacio Rozanski, chairman, CEO and president of Booz Allen, also praised the effort merging both companies’ comparative advantages and specializations in the defense contracting industry.
“Alex and I are creating new mission capabilities that leverage our companies’ unique technologies and expertise to close mission gaps at the speed of now. Our joint team created a prototype in only 45 days,” Rozanski said in a statement accompanying the release.
