Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) today announced an expansion of its contract with the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to deliver technology solutions in support of enterprise capabilities. The one-year delivery is valued at $36.8 million and establishes Palantir as the lead software integrator for USSOCOM’s Mission Command System (MCS) while expanding the technology solutions supporting U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) globally.

This contract award leverages Palantir’s multi-vendor development ecosystem and the Ontology Software Development Kit (OSDK) to expedite software deployment at the edge. The expanded partnership also enables pilot projects across the broader Command, inclusive of efforts dedicated to bringing Palantir’s cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to USSOCOM.

“USSOCOM continues to be at the forefront of adopting emergent technology and we are looking forward to this new stage of our long-time partnership,” said Akash Jain, President, Palantir USG. “Palantir’s Mission Manager is positioned to innovate the Defense industry by providing software to enable and operationalize commercial capabilities for U.S. Government missions. USSOCOM understands that commercial software can be the differentiator in the battlespace and we are steadfast in our commitment to supporting USSOCOM forces around the world.”

This contract award marks the first deployment of Palantir’s Mission Manager to SOF Units. Mission Manager employs Palantir’s secure, Kubernetes-based infrastructure to streamline the Government’s onboarding of innovative and emergent technologies from commercial software vendors into a secure environment. Government administrators have full visibility for operational readiness, risk assessment, and informed decision-making, whether in a connected, disconnected, cloud, or edge environment. This ultimately enables the end user to leverage third-party applications and functionalities within the larger Palantir ecosystem, enabling a more expansive set of capabilities that meet Palantir’s – and the Government’s – strict security parameters.

This contract is the result of the trust built over more than a decade of collaboration between our communities and is a reaffirmation of Palantir’s long-standing commitment to delivering the most capable and reliable software solutions for the Warfighter.
