Reston, VA (September 22, 2020) — NCI Information Systems, Inc. (NCI), a leading provider of advanced information technology solutions and professional services to U.S. federal government agencies, and Tanjo AI, LLC, an award-winning machine learning (ML) company based in North Carolina, have been chosen by the U.S. Navy to provide an AI-enabled project management solution.
NCI is leveraging Tanjo AI’s proprietary ML technology to infuse new data analytics capabilities into NCI’s artificial intelligence (AI) platform, Shai — Scaling Humans with Artificial Intelligence — to deliver real-time insights and actionable intelligence to a range of federal government customers, including this latest project with the U.S. Navy.
NCI and Tanjo will be helping the organization to manage large and complex building contracts more efficiently, track subcontractors through machine automation, and ensure more timely project completion.
“It’s a great fit for both NCI and Tanjo as we are able to put our years of AI and military experience to work in order to help automate the U.S. Navy’s complex project management, saving taxpayer money through reducing thousands of hours of manual tracking and freeing up skilled project managers to provide higher-value results,” said Richard Boyd, CEO, Tanjo.
“Improved insight and more informed decision-making are paramount for complex projects,” said Paul A. Dillahay, president and CEO, NCI. “We are looking forward to sharing our expertise and experience in the space and bringing value to the U.S. Navy.”
