U.S. Army Picks ManTech to Develop Prototype of Cloud-Based Persistent Cyber Training Environment
August 21 2018 - 8:00AM
ManTech (Nasdaq: MANT) today announced that it has been selected as
one of four companies to collaboratively develop a prototype for
the U.S. Army’s Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE)
through an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) with Consortium
Management Group, Inc. (CMG) on behalf of Consortium for Command,
Control and Communications in Cyberspace (C5).
In this new initiative, ManTech will combine its
mission focus and strengths in cyber, systems and software
engineering with complementary expertise in infrastructure
development and learning management systems by non-traditional
defense subcontractors including Ultimate Knowledge Institute (UKI)
and C5 Cyber Partners. The ManTech-led group will collaborate with
the government integration team and the other three selectees to
support the definition, development, testing and integration of
best-in-class capabilities into the prototype PCTE platform.
“As a respected technology leader, ManTech is
excited to team with non-traditional contractors to deliver the
innovation American forces need to win the war in cyber, the fifth
domain battle space,” said Kevin Phillips, President and CEO of
ManTech. “This collaborative effort will join ManTech’s proven
strengths with the core capabilities of our partners, culminating
in the Army’s biggest cyber program.”
Prototype work will involve approximately four
“Cyber Innovation Challenges” over the next two years, to be
conducted at the Army’s PCTE DevOps Center in Orlando, FL. In Cyber
Innovation Challenge #1, ManTech and its team will collaborate with
the Product Manager – Cyber Resilience & Training (PdM-CRT) to
design and deploy the initial platform supporting PCTE.
