On March 14, General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), a business unit of General Dynamics, announced that it has expanded its technology partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS) through a new strategic collaboration agreement to drive digital modernization, deliver efficiencies and advance government missions.
GDIT and AWS will collaborate to develop cutting-edge cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, cloud migration and modernization solutions to accelerate digital transformation for defense, intelligence and civilian agencies. Government agencies will benefit from AWS’s cloud computing environment, widely considered to be one of the most secure available today, to support their unique missions. GDIT will leverage its research and development labs to collaborate with AWS on emerging technologies such as quantum, edge computing and high-performance computing.
GDIT will combine its decades of mission and technology experience with AWS’s cloud offerings to solve complex government challenges. The companies will work closely with customers to identify new use cases and rapidly develop proofs of concept and solutions for a wide variety of missions.
“As government and national security priorities evolve rapidly, federal agencies need industry partners to bring more to their missions,” said Ben Gianni, GDIT’s senior vice president and chief technology officer. “GDIT and AWS share a common vision of how to harness advanced technologies to drive innovation, efficiency and mission impact. This agreement marks a new, exciting phase in our ongoing partnership with AWS, and we look forward to delivering cost-effective and differentiated solutions to our customers.”
“GDIT’s collaboration with AWS will advance the modernization and efficiency of our U.S. Federal customers at a critical time of government digital transformation,” said David Appel, vice president of U.S. Federal at AWS. “Our new agreement will deliver AWS’s advanced cloud services, including generative AI solutions with Amazon Bedrock, NOVA, and Q, to federal agencies working on some of America’s most important missions. Together, our companies continue to drive secure, scalable, and cost-effective solutions in defense, intelligence, and citizen services that enhance American AI leadership at home and abroad.”
