Insights
SAIC's partnership with Bluescape enhances government offerings with secure collaboration platform, strengthening competitive position in high-security defense contracts.
SAIC's strategic partnership with Bluescape represents a significant capability enhancement for their government sector business. The collaboration platform's FedRAMP Moderate+ and DoD IL4/IL5 certifications for handling Controlled Unclassified Information are particularly valuable assets in securing government contracts, where security requirements create substantial barriers to entry.
What makes this partnership strategically valuable is how it addresses specific pain points in government operations. The platform creates a persistent common operating picture that enables dispersed teams to collaborate on sensitive information in real-time – critical functionality for defense and intelligence missions. The workspace persistence provides an automatic record of decision-making processes, an important feature for accountability in government operations.
For SAIC's competitive positioning, this integration allows them to offer a more comprehensive solution to government customers without developing the technology in-house. The platform's ability to work with existing tools and processes minimizes implementation friction, potentially accelerating adoption across SAIC's substantial government client base.
While the press release doesn't disclose financial terms or revenue projections, this partnership aligns perfectly with SAIC's core business as a mission integrator for government agencies, particularly in national security contexts where secure collaboration technologies are increasingly essential.
Provides government customers with secure collaboration solutions for enhanced mission planning and operations
RESTON, Va., April 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Science Applications International Corp. (NASDAQ: SAIC) – a mission integrator for delivering advanced technology solutions to the government – announced today that it has established a strategic partnership with Bluescape® – a collaborative operations platform – to bring a commercially-developed, unlimited virtual workspace to the Department of Defense (DoD), space, intelligence and civilian agencies. The innovative alliance delivers Bluescape’s best-in-class, dual-use technology for today’s critical national security missions to SAIC’s vast ecosystem.
Through the alliance, SAIC will seamlessly integrate Bluescape’s government-compliant unlimited virtual workspace to securely bring data, individuals and applications together for knowledge sharing, visual planning, data analysis and effective mission coordination. The platform is authorized to operate at FedRAMP Moderate+ and by the DoD at IL4/IL5 for CUI data – empowering dispersed teams to share, organize, and interact with critical intel for accelerated decision advantage and response times.
More than just a collaboration tool, Bluescape is a trusted, secure and scalable collaborative operations platform that creates a common operating picture by unifying teams and information streams, providing a centralized, visual workspace for real-time collaboration, information sharing and decision-making. It provides a highly secure, virtual workspace for exchanging information, integrating mission applications and producing content jointly. Bluescape is a commercial platform that enables warfighters and decision-makers to deliver mission outcomes. It can be used across enterprise IT systems, operational forces and interagency or mission partners.
“Today’s warfighters and intelligence community decision-makers face a myriad of complex national security challenges that continually reinforce the imperative need for advanced, secure and efficient solutions,” said Bob Ritchie, SAIC Chief Technology Officer. “Combining Bluescape’s secure and collaborative insight platform with SAIC’s mission-oriented commercial delivery provides the adaptability, speed and decision advantage our government customers require.”
“Bluescape enhances every aspect of mission command and coordinated response. It can accommodate large-scale government organizations and the ability to onboard thousands of users simultaneously,” explained Norm Litterini, Vice President of Public Sector Channels and Partners for Bluescape. “It eliminates the “place problem” that can be a challenge in mission partner environments and across dispersed workforces.”
Bluescape workspaces are persistent and repeatable, so the information and actions taken remain intact after a meeting concludes, providing an automatic record of how decisions were made to jump-start future project work. The platform also allows for the use of existing processes and tools under one secure environment – eliminating the need for a complete overhaul and delay in operations.
