Key points

  • Support to build a "supply-chain risk evaluation platform" for the DoD AI/data hub CDAO
  • Recipient LMI Consulting, LLC, ~$9.4M ($9,396,447), July 2024 – July 2026
  • CDAO = the DoD's central AI organization established in 2022 (consolidating the JAIC and others)
  • Supply-chain risk management = a practical area as semiconductor/critical-component procurement becomes a security concern

The CDAO (Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office) is the central organization, established in 2022, that oversees digital, data, and AI across the DoD; it was formed by consolidating predecessors such as the JAIC. This contract supports developing an environment (platform) to evaluate supply-chain risk for the CDAO. Supply-chain risk management is a practical area for data and AI, as the procurement of semiconductors and critical components becomes a security concern.

The scope states the platform's purpose but not detailed functions, so we do not assert them (refer to primary sources).

Why it matters

A case of the DoD's AI hub (CDAO) building AI infrastructure for the practical task of supply-chain risk management. For those tracking supply-chain security, AI governance, and procurement digital transformation, a useful read on U.S. government priorities.
