On March 18, Unstructured and Carahsoft Technology Corp. announced a partnership. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Unstructured’s Master Government Aggregator, making the company’s cutting-edge data transformation capabilities available to the public sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, Information Technology Enterprise Solutions – Software 2 (ITES-SW2) and OMNIA Partners contracts.
“We are partnering with Carahsoft to bring our industry-leading data transformation tools to a broader audience, addressing the critical challenge of managing unstructured data,” said Brian Raymond, founder and CEO at Unstructured. “This collaboration allows us to leverage Carahsoft’s extensive network and expertise in the Public Sector to help organizations unlock the full potential of their data.”
Government agencies face significant hurdles in managing unstructured data, which includes documents, emails, images and videos. Traditional data processing methods are often inefficient, requiring substantial time and resources. Unstructured’s platform addresses these issues by automating the conversion of unstructured data into formats suitable for Large Language Models (LLMs) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG). This automation not only streamlines data preparation but also improves LLM performance by more than 20 percent without customization.
The new enterprise platform from Unstructured, launched in February 2024, continuously extracts raw unstructured data from existing databases and transforms it into more than 30 file types. This data is then automatically loaded into vector databases for RAG, ensuring real-time, up-to-date information for LLMs. This capability is crucial for public sector agencies inundated with data but lacking the resources for manual processing.
“Unstructured’s advanced data transformation solutions align seamlessly with our goal of delivering innovative technology to the public sector,” said Michael Adams, program executive for AI solutions at Carahsoft. “By integrating Unstructured’s tools into our offerings, Carahsoft and our reseller partners provide government agencies with the means to enhance data management and improve decision-making, all while reducing the time and cost associated with data preparation.”
