BigBear.ai Broadens its Work with the U.S. Air Force, Leveraging Advanced AI to Assist in Military Planning
October 16 2023 - 8:00AM
BigBear.ai (NYSE: BBAI), a leading provider of AI-powered military
and business intelligence solutions, today announced an expanded
commitment from the Air Force Research Laboratory’s (AFRL)
Composable Collaborative Planning BAA. To date, BigBear.ai has
collaborated with AFRL to accelerate the military planning process.
Traditional planning processes take up to two years to build and
affirm. BigBear.ai’s technology will enable the delivery of
resource-informed plans in less than a month.
“We are honored to be a part of the United States Military's
ongoing efforts to modernize military planning and preparedness,”
said Mandy Long, CEO of BigBear.ai. “Our planning tools will be
augmented specifically to address contested logistics challenges,
resulting in dramatic improvements to risk-informed planning. We
are grateful that the AFRL is continuing its commitment to
BigBear.ai based on the success of our work to date.”
BigBear.ai’s work on Project AURORA leverages the company’s
already existing, extensive DoD joint planning capability and
subject matter expertise. Previous collaborations with defense
entities have facilitated rapid resource-informed planning, a feat
previously deemed incredibly challenging. BigBear.ai’s capacity to
integrate disparate, multi-source, real-time CRAE* data during
Course of Action (COA) Development represents a transformational
change to the normal course of military planning.
BigBear.ai’s work on Project AURORA:
- Aims to condense the conventional two-year planning timeframe,
presenting comprehensive, resource-backed operational plans in
under a month.
- Fast-tracks joint planning, emphasizing real-time resource data
during the COA Development phase.
- Fuses authoritative DoD data with the commander’s intent and
overall plan data.
- Provides a holistic view of global implications by visualizing
the effects of simultaneous plan execution.
- Incorporates state-of-the-art models to offer unprecedented
granularity in operational planning.
- Integrates with legacy systems and established enhanced
processes.
