Enabling Defense Modernization

Modernizing brittle, opaque defense supply chains is essential to achieving the speed and scale of military and industrial ingenuity that today’s complex threat landscape and geopolitical volatility demand of the U.S. Armed Forces.

As Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Secretary of the Army Daniel Driscoll have laid out in the Acquisition Transformation Strategy and Army Transformation Initiative, acquisition reform, accelerated decision-making, greater efficiencies, and rapid technology adoption will prepare the armed forces and the larger defense industrial base for rapid change on the battlefield.

Exiger is helping Army deliver on these mandates with AI software that creates visibility into every tier of the Army’s supply chains, introduces the ability to orchestrate and monitor these supply chains, surfaces AI-powered intelligence, risk scoring, and disruption alerts, and automates appropriate and viable courses of action.
 

1Exiger

Exiger develops and delivers its AI solutions through its 1Exiger platform, which uses proprietary data and agentic AI to proactively find risk, automate compliance, accelerate procurement, and reveal opportunities to gain efficiencies and cut costs. 1Exiger shows users how a product really gets made, who makes what, who buys what, where it is built, and where risk flows through every tier.

Exiger’s knowledge graph, the largest of its kind, is paired with its proprietary risk model to filter out irrelevant information and surface only risks that are relevant to its users. And because the knowledge graph is continuously updated, Exiger’s data always provides a real-time picture of risk.

Exiger’s software has been deployed across 550+ customers, including 150 of the Fortune 50, and 60+ government and defense organizations, from the Department of War to the Department of State, Department of Homeland Security, the armed forces, and the intelligence community.

By providing widespread multi-tier supply chain visibility across its defense customers, Exiger is helping build connective tissue between the Pentagon and the defense industrial base, ensuring there is shared visibility and awareness in critical areas of defense technology.
 

Army Programs and Partnerships

Within the Army, Exiger’s software has been used to navigate the kind of volatile supply chain and trade environments that have proliferated since the pandemic.

Working across PEOs such as ground combat and aviation systems for years, Exiger has helped ensure that the Army engages partners that are secure, free from adversarial foreign influence, and operationally sound. Army PEOs have used Exiger’s AI software to achieve supply chain visibility, enhance resilience, and increase operational readiness across the acquisition and sustainment lifecycles.

Exiger’s software has also been used to help PEOs identify critical mineral requirements inside of major weapons systems and enable Army drawdown and sustainment requirements during the Ukraine and Middle East conflicts.

Exiger has partnered with engineering areas, working with organizations like DEVCOM to support Army and Defense Logistics Agency to accelerate the analysis of technical data packages to ensure systems are designed with efficiency, resilience, and sustainability at their core.

Through its acquisition of AI parts intelligence application XSB, Exiger has also brought AI and defense industrial base visibility to the weapons system design process.
 

Army Transformation with AMC

Army Materiel Command recently engaged Exiger to accelerate defense acquisition, reduce lead times, and enhance operational readiness. 1Exiger is delivering an AI-driven multi-tier supply chain illumination, orchestration, and monitoring capability to transform Army sustainment activities across all major sustainment categories, including ground combat, aviation, fires and munitions, air and missile, and communications. Exiger’s software is helping AMC understand where vulnerabilities exist, where alternatives are viable, and where targeted interventions can fortify production.

1Exiger ingests, normalizes, and analyzes structured and unstructured data from technical data packages, bills of material, NSNs/NIINs, supplier datasets, and commercial intelligence sources, providing real-time visibility into multi-tier supply chains, risk scoring, disruption alerts, and automated COAs. The software helps AMC identify at-risk NIINs that may be subject to undue constraints from a variety of factors and monitor for severe risk hiding in the supply chain, identifying where natural and man-made disasters, supplier operational and reputational risk, and foreign adversary sourcing could create disruptions in the weapons systems warfighters depend on.

Exiger’s software will be integrated with Army’s Weapon System 360 and Vantage environments to deliver decision-ready intelligence to reduce administrative and production lead times, improve supplier selection and sourcing, enhance sustainment forecasting, accelerate organic and additive manufacturing, strengthen resilience in contested environments, and enable rapid AI-driven responses to disruptions.
