About SAIC
SAIC is a mission integrator that sells a portfolio of offerings integrating emerging technology into mission critical operations. SAIC has its headquarters in Reston, Virginia, with approximately 23,000 employees and annual revenues of about $7.3 billion. The portfolio of offerings from SAIC covers the defense, space, civilian and intelligence markets and includes solutions in mission IT, enterprise IT, engineering services and professional services.[7]
SAIC describes as-a-service as a model that comes with the hardware, software and supporting people needed to deliver a mission capability or an outcome in a turnkey package. SAIC works with provider partners as a service integrator on delivery and pricing structures for agencies. In digital engineering-as-a-service, agencies can purchase subscription-based access to a cloud environment built and managed by SAIC, with commercial modeling, visualization, simulation and analysis applications.
SAIC includes software development with a DevSecOps tool chain for applications. Data on-demand is a capability in which SAIC provides a platform as-a-service for retrieval of specific data sets from commercial data products upon need. Hyperautomation automates enterprise business processes and IT workflows using multiple technologies that include robotic process automation, AI and machine learning. An enterprise operations center service provides continuous monitoring of IT infrastructure events. Cybersecurity analysis provides situational awareness and supports governance, risk and compliance analysis.[1]
Many government customers call on SAIC to help them operate and manage their hybrid and multi-cloud environments that use public cloud service providers (CSPs). SAIC helps those customers broker, assemble and integrate offerings from various CSPs. The management work includes tracking costs and performance and managing governance around which CSPs or locations in the environment are authorized to handle specific workloads.
SAIC operates the Identity and Data Sciences Laboratory (IDSL), a testbed for advancing AI-based biometric systems in mission-critical environments. IDSL conducts applied research, test and evaluation, delivers technical guidance, and identifies system vulnerabilities early in the technology lifecycle. SAIC states that testing can be conducted at the Maryland Test Facility, sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate, in the cloud, or on agency infrastructure. SAIC offers testing-as-a-service to border and law enforcement agencies deploying AI-based biometric technologies. SAIC presents independent testing as a service as an alternative to in-house or vendor testing.[1][9][10]
