ARLINGTON, VA – May 2, 2022
Decision Lens and Second Front Systems (2F) are pleased to announce they have entered a strategic partnership to make Decision Lens software more readily available to the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community via 2F’s Game Warden platform.
The partnership seeks to empower the federal government with secure software as it increasingly looks towards the private sector for innovative solutions to its most pressing challenges. Today, agencies are forced to navigatecomplex Authorities to Operate (ATO) requirements, expensive decisions to self-host, and a fractured technology infrastructure. The result is difficult to procure, expensive to maintain, and hard to scale software.
According to Dan Saaty, Chief Scientist at Decision Lens, most of these challenges will be overcome thanks to Game Warden." Game Warden enables Decision Lens to affordably onboard our new defense customers within days or weeks on a fully managed, secure IL4/5 DevSecOps platform. What has traditionally been a highly involved, time consuming, and expensive Authority to Operate approval process for each client’s network is now lightning fast with the Game Warden platform, enabling our customers to realize the benefits of our solution almost immediately after contract completion.”
Tyler Sweatt, 2F VP of Growth, also touted the partnership, “Closing the industry-government divide by making innovative software, such as Decision Lens, more accessible to the federal government is the realization of our mission. By focusing on streamlining, securing, and scaling the process by which the government accesses and the commercial sector deploys cutting-edge software, we are excited to unleash the power of commercial technology on the national security community. ”
Beyond software availability, Decision Lens and 2F will partner on co-innovation and co-marketing to deliver cutting edge solutions that meet the ever-changing needs of government. Together, the organizations will demonstrate that under the right conditions, the private-public partnership can be powerful for allowing government to act faster, fund smarter, and innovate at scale.
