Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRCY, www.mrcy.com))), and Palantir (NASDAQ:PLTR, www.palantir.com))), a leading provider of AI software bringing commercial approaches to aerospace and defense, today announced a strategic agreement to enhance the automation of material planning and factory operations to accelerate the delivery of processing technologies for U.S. military programs.

In support of the U.S. Department of War, Palantir is working with key U.S. defense industrial base suppliers to increase throughput and reduce delivery timelines for critical components and subsystems. Through two initial workflows, Mercury will streamline material planning, reduce manual workloads, and improve the ability to deliver at increased capacity across its factories. These efforts will allow Mercury to better meet increased customer demands without prolonging delivery timelines or increasing costs. Palantir will also help Mercury build an enterprise ontology that serves as a digital twin of the company’s operations and business practices, enabling faster decisions and improved production predictability.
