The U.S. Navy joins theU.S. Army andU.S. Space Force in awarding Ark an ATO, further validating Ark's leading security standards and robust risk mitigation capabilities across the Department of Defense (DoD). This multi-service adoption reinforces Govini's standing as a trusted partner of the federal government, empowering agencies to deploy and utilize Ark with greater speed and impact.
“Securing our third ATO proves Ark can deliver the secure, mission-critical insights that equip our warfighters with a decisive advantage,” said Govini CEO Tara Murphy Dougherty. “This milestone accelerates our mission to transform the Pentagon's acquisition process, paving the way for faster, data-driven action. We're proud to help usher in a new era of speed, AI, and software innovation for the Navy.”
Ark moves the daily operations of managing the DoD's trillion-dollar weapons portfolio from slow, error-prone spreadsheets to powerful AI-enabled Applications with visibility of the entire defense industrial base.
With this authorization, Navy programs can integrate their mission-critical data with Govini's acquisition intelligence, accelerating the development and fielding of bleeding-edge technology through streamlined acquisition and supply chain insights.
“PMS 404 is focused on accelerating munitions production and innovation in our undersea weapons programs,” said Program Manager CAPT Chris Polk. “This authorization gives us access to the data-driven capabilities in Ark we need to move faster and deliver critical weapons to our submariners at speed.”
Already deployed across the Defense Acquisition community, Ark is now authorized to integrate Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) for Navy programs, allowing Govini to play a deeper role in missions and functions throughout the DoD and other federal agencies.
