For the project, the company will design, produce, migrate, and deploy cloud-based solutions for the DMDC’s information technology enterprise. These tasks encompass automated platforms such as artificial intelligence, generative AI, and machine learning systems.
Additional tasks involve the security of these articles to ensure their critical functionality throughout migrations.
Furthermore, the firm will provide full-service cyber and risk management support to alleviate operational and privacy risks.
ICF wrote that the deal is part of a $1.4-billion multiple-award blanket purchase agreement distributed to 10 industry partners.
Each consortium member selected is eligible for 25 task areas, including data analysis, software solution architecture, cloud engineering, systems integration, operations, and sustainment.
