About

The Ministry of Defence awarded a contract to IBM LP LIMITED for the provision of a standalone Proof of Concept (POC) capability for Land Artificial Intelligence.

The prototype, valued at £3,800,487, is based on existing commercial data sources linked to a large computer processor with associated large storage capacity capable of interacting with and supporting AI algorithms.

It is designed to be cloud-hosted and will provide the baseline upon which a series of experimental Artificial Intelligence, Advanced Analytics, or Augmented Intelligence Agile components can be assessed, enabling the rapid exploitation of AI and other evolving technologies to aid maturation and gain operational advantage over adversaries.
