General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) has been honored with the 2025 Global Defense Consulting Partner of the Year award by Amazon Web Services (AWS). This prestigious recognition underscores GDIT’s significant contributions to advancing national security missions through innovative tactical edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions developed in collaboration with AWS.
The award highlights GDIT’s prowess in leveraging AI and machine learning to create solutions that operate effectively at the “tactical edge” – the immediate vicinity where data is generated and action is taken. This is critical for defense operations where rapid decision-making can be the difference between mission success and failure.
A prime example of GDIT’s cutting-edge work is the Defense Operations Grid Mesh Accelerator, or DOGMA. This sophisticated platform integrates advanced AI, machine learning, cloud capabilities, and satellite connectivity. DOGMA empowers analysts to swiftly process vast amounts of data and accelerate decision-making in dynamic, often high-stakes environments.
GDIT has showcased DOGMA’s capabilities in several high-profile military exercises this year. During a Technology Readiness Experimentation (T-REX) event, DOGMA was deployed to monitor 350 commercial aircraft and unmanned aerial systems. The system analyzed nine million aircraft positions, demonstrating an impressive ability to predict whether an aircraft posed a threat. This capability dramatically reduced decision-making time from 30 minutes to a mere 3 seconds. Furthermore, at the Cyber Fortress 2025 exercise, DOGMA provided real-time visibility into aerial threats during a simulated complex cyber and physical attack on a power grid, aiding in coordinated response efforts.
“This recognition is a testament to how collaboration can strengthen tactical edge AI innovation,” stated Brian Sheridan, GDIT’s senior vice president for the defense division. “We’re shaping mission-critical solutions that allow teams to operate faster, safer, and with greater confidence in the most demanding operational environments.”
As an AWS Premier Tier Services Partner, GDIT manages hundreds of active cloud programs across government agencies. The company’s partnership with AWS extends to developing solutions across various critical mission areas, including future battlespace operations, homeland protection, government modernization, and border security. This latest award marks the fourth AWS Partner Award received by GDIT, building on previous accolades such as the 2023 North America Collaboration Partner of the Year, the 2021 AWS Global Public Sector Partner Award, and the 2019 AWS Government Competency Public Sector Consulting Partner Award.
The AWS Geographic and Global Partner Awards celebrate AWS partners who have demonstrated exceptional specialization, innovation, and cooperation over the past year. These awards acknowledge partners whose business models are not only evolving but thriving on the AWS platform, demonstrating their commitment to customer success.
