Defence and Intelligence provider Arc Professional Services has signed a contract with the Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG). The contract will see Arc contribute to the cutting-edge Resilient Decision Highway (RDH) project, a state-of-the-art platform designed to enhance collaborative problem-solving, situational awareness, and operational decision-making within the Australian Defence Force and its Five Eyes partners.
The RDH project, initiated in 2019, provides timely situational awareness and operational insights to intelligence analysts and warfighters. Arc says itsk involvement underscores its commitment to advancing defence technology and supporting national security initiatives.
Arc will work with DSTG and other project stakeholders to develop and maintain the RDH’s underlying platform infrastructure, create novel analytic capabilities, and design user interfaces that improve human-machine collaboration. The project will follow an Agile development methodology, ensuring flexibility and responsiveness to evolving requirements.
“We are proud to support the RDH project and look forward to contributing to its success. Our team is dedicated to delivering high-quality, innovative solutions that meet the complex needs of our defence clients,” said Arc’s Managing Director Jeremy Stredwick.
Key highlights of Arc’s contributions to the RDH project include:
-
Building and sustaining secure, cloud-native platforms and DevSecOps pipelines to accelerate the transition of novel capabilities to operational environments;
-
Creating synthetic reasoning agents and dynamic orchestration systems to support integrated, mission-agnostic analytics;
-
Enhancing user experiences to ensure effective collaboration between AI capabilities and end-users, improving decision-making and situational awareness; and
-
Automating current manual workflows to demonstrate the utility of RDH to operations capability managers, with a focus on sensor fusion and tracking.
