This will help the DOD to meet its unique missions and requirements.
Bluescape CEO Peter Jackson said: “In today’s new working world, we at Bluescape recognise the mission-critical need for secure environments that provide collaboration in real-time.
“Through this ATO, we’re humbled to help pioneer the next phase of digitisation within the DOD and are thrilled our software will play an integral role in accelerating innovation within the defense ecosystem.”

Additionally, the capabilities would be made available to all DOD personnel with a Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) NSERC account.
NSERC NAVSEA programme manager Bob Simmons said: “As the DOD continues to modernise, we are excited to have received an ATO for the new NSERC environment, which includes Cloud applications that can be built and deployed across the entire DOD.
“NSERC provides mission partners with secure cloud services that support the warfighter mission, and users can continue to drive faster decisions, no matter where they are located.”
Bluescape’s capabilities address the diverse needs of the DOD and demonstrate the potential of collaboration across its personnel.
