About

MINISTRY OF DEFENCE awarded a contract to FORMIC LIMITED for the provision of Formic Fusion support and maintenance, valued at AUD 80,000.

The contract covers a 12-month licence renewal critical for the availability of the Army Hosting Environment (AHE) and Defence Gateway (DGW) applications and services.

It supports development, test, and live support at both application and platform levels, as well as ongoing maintenance and security patching on the Army's cloud hosting infrastructures, including the Joint Server Farm (JSF) and the AHE OFFICIAL, OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE, and SECRET environments.

The software automatically scans, extracts, and validates hand-written information from paper documents up to 50 times faster than a human operator and enables organisations to publish custom forms to the web or deploy them to Microsoft Windows Mobile devices for electronic completion at the front line.
