Edge-to-classified compute for the warfighter
Rugged, secure HPE platforms for tactical edge, command centers, and classified operations. We build to STIG and RMF, then sustain it in the field.
What you're up against
- ▸Fielding compute and connectivity at the tactical edge under hard SWaP (size, weight, and power) limits, where data centers, conditioned power, and cooling don't exist
- ▸Operating across multiple classification levels and isolated/air-gapped enclaves without manual rebuilds or configuration drift between them
- ▸Securing a hardened, accreditation-ready baseline (STIG/RMF) and then keeping it compliant through the ATO lifecycle as STIGs and threats change
- ▸Standing up ISR, modeling, simulation, and AI/ML workloads that need HPC-class throughput but must run on TAA-compliant, supportable hardware
- ▸Sustaining systems forward-deployed in austere or contested environments where spares, vendor techs, and connectivity are limited
How we deliver
- Tactical edge and SWaP-constrained compute
- STIG / RMF hardened builds
- Classified and air-gapped operations
- HPC and AI for ISR and modeling
Built for the standards your mission requires
Frequently asked
How do you buy through GPC direct, and what about TAA compliance?
We quote and deliver via GPC or FAR-based orders agreements, plus GPC, SAP, FAR, and GSA eBuy, so contracting officers can buy on an existing vehicle without a new competition. All hardware is TAA-compliant, and we provide the documentation your acquisition and supply-chain reviews need. Orders are GPC-payable with no payment required up front.
Can you deliver STIG- and RMF-hardened systems that speed up our ATO?
Yes. We ship builds pre-hardened to the applicable DISA STIGs and aligned to your RMF baseline, with the control implementation documented so your ISSO and assessors aren't starting from a default image. That cuts the remediation churn that usually slows an ATO. We can also re-baseline as STIG releases change over the system's life.
What can you field at the SWaP-constrained tactical edge?
We configure ruggedized, SWaP-conscious HPE ProLiant edge compute for inference, sensor fusion, and command-and-control forward of the data center, paired with HPE Aruba Networking CX switching and secure wireless that can run disconnected or in low-bandwidth conditions. Systems are sized to operate without raised-floor power or cooling and to survive transport and field handling.
Do you support classified and air-gapped (isolated) networks?
Yes. We design for air-gapped enclaves, cross-domain boundaries, and SCIF deployments using DoDIN APL-listed networking, FIPS 140-3 validated encryption, and CSfC-aligned architectures where commercial solutions are used to protect classified data. Builds, patching, and lifecycle support are structured to work without internet connectivity to the enclave.
Can you stand up HPC and AI for ISR, modeling, and simulation?
We size and integrate HPE compute, including HPE Cray supercomputing and GPU-accelerated ProLiant, with the storage and high-speed interconnect those workloads need for ISR exploitation, modeling, and AI/ML. The same platforms are available through your existing federal vehicles and are built to be accreditable and supportable, not one-off science projects.
How do you handle refresh and sustainment for forward-deployed systems?
We plan refreshes around mission windows and accreditation boundaries so a hardware swap doesn't force a full re-ATO where it can be avoided, and we migrate workloads with tested cutover runbooks. For systems in austere or contested locations, we structure spares, support tiers, and documentation so units can sustain and recover equipment with limited reachback. HPE GreenLake is available where a consumption model fits the program.
