Polaris I/O and Carahsoft partner

On September 23, Polaris I/O, a decision intelligence platform for defense, intelligence and public sector mission teams, and Carahsoft Technology Corp. announced a partnership. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Polaris I/O’s Master Government Aggregator, making the company’s decision intelligence platform available to the Public Sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, The Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS), OMNIA Partners, E&I Cooperative Services Contract and The Quilt contracts.

Federal, defense and intelligence teams are confronting an unprecedented volume of data that must be processed, analyzed and acted upon. Polaris I/O continuously monitors, extracts, correlates and prioritizes critical signals across ISR, OSINT, HUMINT, SIGINT and GEOINT, as well as sensor feeds, reports, procurement activity and internal systems, helping teams cut through data noise and focus on the information that matters most.

This enables analysts and mission teams to spend less time on discovery, codification and data parsing, and more time on delivering fresh, actionable work product to commanders and decision-makers. The partnership with Carahsoft gives agencies a faster, more direct path to putting these capabilities to work by combining Polaris I/O’s decision intelligence platform with Carahsoft’s established reach across the Public Sector.

“Mission teams need proven capabilities in their hands quickly, and Carahsoft’s established relationships across federal, Defense and Intelligence agencies help us do exactly that,” said Ankur Laroia, strategic advisor at Polaris I/O. “As our partner, Carahsoft gives Polaris I/O a trusted, familiar path into the agencies we’re built to serve, and that means faster delivery of the decision intelligence our mission partners rely on.”

“Polaris I/O’s platform empowers government agencies with real-time decision intelligence, leveraging AI-enabled signal detection, pattern recognition, entity extraction and more across complex data environments,” said Michael Shrader, vice president of intelligence and innovative solutions at Carahsoft. “By continuously monitoring and analyzing data, the platform helps agencies identify emerging risks, uncover critical patterns and make more informed decisions. Together with our reseller partners, Carahsoft and Polaris I/O are helping agencies accelerate the adoption of decision intelligence.”

Through the partnership, Polaris I/O and Carahsoft will work together to bring decision intelligence capabilities to federal, defense and intelligence agencies with greater speed and reach. Carahsoft’s reseller ecosystem, established contract vehicles and dedicated sales teams give agencies a familiar, trusted path to purchase Polaris I/O, while marketing programs, industry events and partner networks extend Polaris I/O’s reach across the public sector. This partnership marks a strategic step in Polaris I/O’s public sector growth, pairing its decision intelligence platform with Carahsoft’s deep experience navigating Federal procurement and channel strategy.
