Cleared Foundry engineers for Pentagon, DoD agencies, and defense contractors in Arlington.
Arlington is the operational center of the Department of Defense. The Pentagon coordinates global military operations, defense logistics, and strategic planning from here. The U.S. Army recently consolidated 75 Palantir contracts into a single $10 billion Enterprise Agreement—the largest Palantir deal ever—to provide Foundry and AIP across the entire Army enterprise.
Beyond the Pentagon, Arlington hosts Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Defense Security Cooperation Agency, and dozens of defense contractors supporting DoD programs. This is where defense technology decisions get made and where major programs execute.
In July 2025, the U.S. Army awarded Palantir a 10-year Enterprise Service Agreement worth up to $10 billion. This consolidated 75 separate contracts into one framework providing Foundry and AIP across Army commands, installations, and programs.
What this means: The Army will expand Foundry use significantly. Programs that previously couldn't afford Palantir now have access through the Enterprise Agreement. This creates demand for cleared Foundry engineers who can help Army units actually use the platform—building ontologies for logistics data, developing Workshop apps for readiness tracking, integrating operational data from deployed units.
Organizations that helped implement this expansion include major Army contractors and systems integrators who need Palantir specialists to augment their teams.
Defense leadership needs integrated data across all services—readiness, logistics, personnel, operations, intelligence. Palantir Foundry provides the platform for integrating these disparate systems into unified operational pictures.
DLA manages military supply chains globally—fuel, food, medical supplies, equipment. Supply chain visibility requires integrating data from suppliers, transportation networks, warehouses, and military units. Foundry's ability to model complex supply networks and track items across multiple systems makes it relevant for defense logistics.
DCMA oversees defense contracts and ensures contractors meet requirements. This involves tracking thousands of contracts, performance data, financial information, and compliance metrics. Foundry can integrate this data and provide visibility across the defense industrial base.
DARPA funds advanced technology research with military applications. Program managers need to track research progress, integration potential, and transition paths to operational programs. Workshop applications can help manage these complex research portfolios.
Arlington hosts offices for every major defense contractor and systems integrator:
Many of these contractors support Palantir implementations for DoD programs. We work as subcontractors when they need cleared Foundry specialists who can integrate with their existing teams.
Logistics and readiness data integration: Military units track readiness across personnel, equipment, training, and supply status. This data lives in dozens of systems (GCSS-Army, LMP, DBMS, etc.). Foundry ontologies need to unify these sources and give commanders real-time operational pictures.
Cross-service data sharing: Joint operations require sharing data across Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Space Force. Each service has different systems and data formats. Foundry's multi-organization architecture supports this cross-service integration while maintaining service-specific security controls.
Operational planning tools: Workshop applications for military planners need to support mission planning, force allocation, logistics coordination, and operational execution. These aren't generic dashboards—they're mission tools that commanders use to make time-sensitive decisions.
Supply chain visibility: Defense supply chains span the globe. Tracking parts, equipment, and supplies from manufacturers through multiple transportation modes to forward operating bases requires end-to-end data integration.
AIP for operational AI: The Army's Enterprise Agreement includes AIP. This enables AI-powered analysis of logistics data, automated intelligence analysis, and AI-assisted operational planning—all running in classified networks where data never leaves DoD systems.
Most DoD work in Arlington requires security clearances—Secret minimum, TS/SCI for classified programs. Getting someone cleared takes 12-18 months. Defense programs can't wait.
Our engineers hold active clearances and have worked on defense programs. We understand military organizational structures, defense acquisition processes, and the operational requirements that drive military technology programs.
Cleared Foundry engineers with defense experience: Engineers who understand military operations, defense logistics, and the data systems DoD actually uses.
Readiness and logistics ontologies: Data models for military readiness, supply chain management, and operational planning that match how DoD actually works.
Workshop applications for military operations: Mission planning tools, readiness dashboards, logistics tracking, and operational coordination applications built for military workflows.
Defense data integration: Pipelines that connect legacy DoD systems (GCSS-Army, LMP, DEAMS, etc.) with Foundry, handling military data standards and security classifications.
AIP for defense operations: AI deployment in classified defense networks for automated logistics analysis, intelligence processing, and operational decision support.
BaileyFinch Solutions is an SBA-Certified VOSB (CAGE: 9ZDW1, UEI: U8CWL9QJZGH1). We're eligible for VOSB set-asides up to $4.5M sole source and help prime contractors meet small business subcontracting goals on DoD programs.
We're based in Ashburn, Virginia—30 minutes from Arlington via I-66 or the Dulles Toll Road. Our engineers work on-site at the Pentagon, contractor facilities in Crystal City and Pentagon City, and defense agency offices throughout Arlington.
The U.S. Army's $10B Palantir deal (July 2025) consolidated 75 contracts and provides enterprise-wide Foundry and AIP access. This creates significant demand for cleared Foundry engineers who can help Army units implement and use the platform.
