For nearly two decades, Knexus has worked with dozens of agencies across the US government as a trusted partner to deliver tailored AI solutions to mission-critical problems. With four patents and 100+ peer-reviewed scientific papers, the scientists and engineers of Knexus are routinely breaking the barriers between human and machine intelligence.
The company has recently announced that it has been awarded a five-year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) to deliver cutting-edge generative AI (GenAI) solutions built on the Google Cloud technology stack.
The IDIQ contract is a result of Knexus’ performance in a highly competitive hackathon, where the company demonstrated the power of GenAI by creating a user-friendly interface that allowed users to ask questions about recent world events and their potential impact on the DLA supply chain.
By combining Google Cloud’s advanced AI models with publicly available DLA strategy documents, Knexus has demonstrated a solution showcasing how GenAI can revolutionise supply chain insights. This has not only solidified Knexus’ position as a leader in AI innovation, but has also paved the way for the company’s new partnership with DLA.
“This contract award is a monumental achievement for Knexus,” says Justin Karneeb, Vice President of Technical Solutions at Knexus. “Our partnership with Google Cloud has enabled the rapid deployment of transformative AI solutions that address the agency’s critical needs.
“By leveraging the power of GenAI, we can help DLA streamline processes, improve decision-making and drive innovation across a wide range of operations. We are excited to embark on this 5-year journey and make a lasting impact on the agency.”
The IDIQ contract provides a framework for Knexus to deliver GenAI solutions to DLA over the next five years across a variety of use cases. The company will leverage its expertise in AI, machine learning and data science to develop tailored solutions that meet the agency’s specific requirements as well as driving operational efficiency.
Knexus’ commitment to providing secure, scalable and innovative AI solutions aligns perfectly with DLA’s goal of harnessing the power of AI to improve its day-to-day operations.
“We’re excited to provide the platform for Knexus to support the Defense Logistics Agency in their mission to enhance operational efficiency and security,” says Troy Bertram, Executive Managing Director, Partner Ecosystem, Google Public Sector. “Knexus’ deep technical knowledge and industry expertise combined with AI solutions built on Google Cloud will provide valuable insights and automation, helping to streamline DLA’s processes and mitigate risks.”
