Accenture Federal Services (AFS) has announced that Novetta, an advanced analytics company acquired in August 2021 by AFS, has entered into a first-of-its-kind agreement to commercialize Platform One, the US Air Force’s (USAF) software development platform.
Specifically, the two-year deal allows Novetta to resell and support the platform’s Iron Bank and Big Bang products, thus expanding the Platform One footprint across federal government and industry partners alike.
“We’re thrilled to support the US Air Force in reimagining its approach to software delivery,” said Tiffanny Gates, AFS Senior Managing Director, National Security Portfolio and former Novetta President and CEO.
“Through the commercialization of Platform One, clients across the federal government, as well as industry partners, will realize immediate value with increased speed-to-mission and mission assurance.”
Under the agreement, the company along with its partners Fearless and Spathe Systems, will tailor and deploy both Big Bang (Infrastructure-as-Code and Configuration-as-Code) and Iron Bank (container registry) products for government customers and commercial software vendors alike.
Having spearheaded this development, the USAF will focus on the baseline and governance of the Platform One environment.
