MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (WV News) — NextGen Federal Systems (NextGen) has been awarded its first Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase III contract by the U.S. Air Force.
It is NextGen's largest research-and-development contract award to date.
The project deploys, sustains and continually enhances a cyber-secure Weather Machine Learning Operations production platform, along with the Global Synthetic Weather Radar Real-Time System to meet Air Force Weather mission needs, officials said.
The project encompasses an array of activities, including the coordinated actions of a skilled team applying a combination of machine learning, data science and engineering, and continuous DevSecOps software development.
“NextGen is excited to embark on this groundbreaking project, and through collaboration with the United States Air Force, we aim to enhance weather intelligence capabilities, ultimately contributing to the success of military operations,” said NextGen Technical Director Bob Farrell.
“NextGen Federal Systems is proud to be at the forefront of innovation, and this award represents our commitment to advancing the field of weather forecasting and machine learning,” said Chetan Desai, NextGen chief operating officer. “The company looks forward to continuing its collaboration with the U.S. Air Force and other stakeholders to create more groundbreaking solutions for the future.”
