- Global Advanced Technology LLC is an affiliated operating entity serving as the primary advanced technology and defense innovation vehicle within the Global Defense enterprise. The company focuses on defense science and technology, applied research, experimentation, prototyping, and research-to-operations transition in support of U.S. Department of Defense missions across all domains and across tactical, operational, and strategic echelons in direct support of the tactical edge.
- Global Advanced Technology LLC engages with Department of Defense research organizations, operational sponsors, laboratories, and transition partners to mature, integrate, and advance software-centric capabilities from early concept through prototype, demonstration, experimentation, and operationally relevant transition. The company is structured to operate effectively across early-stage research, applied experimentation, and transition environments while maintaining alignment with sponsor objectives, technical rigor, disciplined scope, and responsible technology maturation practices.
- The company supports mission areas including operational data integration, decision-support software, navigation and positioning confidence, analytics for contested and degraded environments, resilient and adaptive architectures, information assurance, and advanced data-driven systems intended to improve visibility, coordination, and decision quality from the tactical user through operational command and strategic decision-making levels. Emphasis is placed on enabling sponsor-defined transition pathways rather than standalone technology demonstrations, closed solutions, or acquisition-centric delivery models.
- Global Advanced Technology LLC operates across service, joint, and cross-functional contexts, supporting defense organizations responsible for science and technology development, experimentation, prototyping, and capability transition. Engagements are designed to complement government laboratories, program offices, and operational sponsors while ensuring that strategic and operational capabilities remain anchored to real tactical needs and mission execution.
