According to the company Vice President of Modernization and Digital Transformation Sanjay Sardar, one of Science Applications International Corp.’s notable successes of 2018 was establishing itself as a leading partner in the General Services Administration Centers of Excellence work.
“We won awards on three of the COEs — Data Analytics Capacity Building, Data Visualization and Analytics, and Infrastructure Optimization Cloud Adoption — and we’re excited to support the implementation of this innovative procurement strategy,” Sardar said.
Sardar says he’s proud to help guide the development of SAIC’s IT modernization strategy, ensuring a strong focus on cloud migration, cyber, infrastructure optimization, and analytics. This effort helped to reaffirm SAIC’s presence as a leading technology integrator, he said.
SAIC is the second largest pure-play technology integrator in government services, with a deep understanding of its customers’ missions.
“We have the scale and resources to help them navigate their future, share real experiences and capabilities across our customers and identify best solutions,” Sardar added.
The company grew up in a mission-focused world, and has set itself apart by first developing solutions that begin with mission understanding, and then integrating the technologies and strategic alliance partners necessary to create successes for its customers.
“We focus on technologies that are applicable to our customers in both the short term and the long term,” Sardar said.
SAIC has made significant investments in areas such as artificial intelligence technology to support improved service desk functionality and cybersecurity. It is also supporting enhanced mobile development and robotic process automation to help its government customers streamline their operations and focus more of their valuable time and resources on meeting their mission needs.
“Finally, we continue to develop advanced analytics tools and techniques that help agencies make better decisions and create a data driven culture,” Sardar added.
Why Watch:
SAIC will continue to focus on helping agencies implement their unique IT modernization journeys. Each agency is at a different stage in the process, and each differs in its needs and goals.
“We will deliver the best talent and technology to support them in this effort,” Sardar said.
