ARLINGTON, Va., Oct. 12, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- The Department of War has awarded Air, a leader in Enterprise Readiness, a $200 million, five-year contract to support the U.S. Army's Next Generation Command and Control (NGC2) ecosystem. This contract builds on a longstanding partnership between Air and the U.S. Army, extending from the inception of NGC2 through ongoing development and field testing.
Air's AI-native platform has been integral in providing software that eliminates operational bottlenecks, expedites mission planning, and shortens sensor-to-shooter-to-sustainer timelines. By converting frontline operations into live demand signals, Air's platform offers commanders real-time, AI-driven operational visibility into supply stocks, unit capacity, and overall force readiness. This shift from a reactive to a predictive sustainment posture ensures forces remain combat-ready at mission speed.
Most recently, Air's capabilities supported Project Convergence Capstone 6 (PCC6), the Army's premier event designed to simulate realistic scenarios and push the boundaries of future warfare capabilities. Building on field trials with the 4th Infantry Division (4ID), Air will collaborate closely with Army and industry partners to deliver NGC2 software, starting with I Corps as NGC2 transitions from division-level prototyping to operational delivery across the force.
Air's Enterprise Readiness platform aligns development, production, delivery, and sustainment into one coordinated execution system, revealing true capacity, exposing real constraints, coordinating critical resources, and executing at the speed of operational demands. The result: the national security enterprise has what it needs to succeed.
Air's focus on AI-driven solutions and predictive sustainment underscores its commitment to enhancing the U.S. Army's operational readiness and efficiency. As Air continues to support the Army's NGC2 initiative, the company aims to further bridge the gap between what the frontline needs and what the national security enterprise can deliver.
