Competencies
The core competencies at the heart of our enterprise
Our technical core competencies underpin the work we do for our customers every day. These competencies define the areas in which technical excellence is critical, not only for our business, but in the work we do daily to help customers achieve the important missions on the frontlines of their industry.
Our competencies can be categorized in two discrete ways. First, as market-facing solutions to the most common technology challenges we are asked to solve, namely in Cyber, Enterprise IT Modernization, Integrated Systems, Mission Software Systems, Operations and Logistics, and Sensors, Collection and Phenomenology.
Second, all of our work is underpinned by a consistent set of three enabling competencies that are critical in all the work that we do, namely Data Science and Engineering, Secure Development and Operations, and System Engineering and Integration. Explore the full range of our competencies below.
Cyber
We bring more than a decade of experience defending cyber interests globally and delivering advanced capabilities honed from protecting some of the world’s most valuable assets. Our solutions and services ensure an adaptive defense strategy, sustainable threat protection, and a mature security posture.
