March 15, 2024 | BUSINESS WIREEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Science Applications International Corp. announced it received $284 million in awards from the United States intelligence community in January and February of 2024.
“Our national intelligence community business has been executing on a multi-year strategy to expand our efforts into more mission, IT and engineering work within the community,” said David Ray, executive vice president, Space and Intelligence Business Group at SAIC. “Beginning this calendar year with several wins gives us a great foundation to build on customer relationships and deliver on mission sets outside of our traditional advisory services.”
Comprising the bulk of the total value, SAIC was informed of two awards larger than $100 million and the first task order of a single-award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract. The work spans several capability areas including data, AI and engineering.
In late 2023, the company’s intelligence community and space work combined to create a new business group. This change allows for additional collaboration opportunities between the two segments who were already closely aligned, especially in markets such as the National Reconnaissance Office and the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency.

Training AI Together—Without Sharing Private Data
05/21/2025 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineArtificial intelligence models work better with more data. While individual EMS companies can certainly create plenty of data over time, the broader the data set, the more insightful the AI results can be. Ben Rachinger, a research assistant at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, received the NextGen Best Paper at IPC APEX EXPO 2025. His research asks: What if a model could be created that allowed industry-wide data in the model, while still protecting proprietary information?
