The partnership combines Rune’s AI-enabled predictive logistics and sustainment mission command software with Leidos’ AI-enabled decision advantage and course-of-action generation capabilities. Leidos said the combined approach will give commanders greater sustainment insight and decision support in contested environments, including the distance, time, scale and maritime challenges of the Indo-Pacific region.
“Sustaining forces across the vast distances of the Indo-Pacific requires the ability to understand logistics demand before it affects mission execution,” said Jason McCarthy, Leidos senior vice president, Airborne & Mission Solutions. “Together with Rune, we’re giving commanders the insight and decision support they need to improve logistics visibility and increase readiness in complex and dispersed operating areas, today, not years from now.”
The companies said the partnership brings together complementary capabilities for military organizations operating where speed, distance and uncertainty can challenge readiness. The focus is on helping commanders anticipate sustainment needs before they affect operations.
“Technology alone doesn’t solve logistics challenges in the Indo-Pacific,” said David Tuttle, Co-Founder & CEO of Rune Technologies. “Winning in this environment requires using technology to connect data across planning, decision-making, and execution in complex operational environments to enable sustainment at speed. By combining Rune’s AI-enabled predictive logistics capabilities with Leidos’ enterprise data integration expertise, we’re helping commanders do exactly that.”
Leidos said the partnership reflects its NorthStar 2030 strategy. The company said the effort supports its focus on AI-enabled decision advantage, mission software and operational readiness.
