Reduced Tier 1 IT workload
The opportunity
Rapid growth in 2024 spurred demand on IT and HR support teams, who needed to help employees across secure facilities, client sites and remote settings. To keep pace with this expansion while upholding strict government security standards, MANTECH set out to leverage and deploy AI to advance and grow their systems at speed across the enterprise, leading the company to:
Transform Tier 1 support and knowledge delivery with proactive, intelligent engagement.
Support a larger demand on IT and HR support teams to help employees across secure facilities, client sites and remote settings.
Enable operations in some of the most complex environments in the world, since MANTECH is a leading provider of technical services, digital solutions and operationalized data to U.S. federal agencies.
MANTECH is committed to finding ways to turn these challenges into opportunities to make the future happen now in real time. MANTECH’s innovation culture maps to rapid deployment of Data and AI for Defense, Intelligence Community and Federal Civilian agency clients. Their “Proven Here First” approach demonstrates this commitment to AI for the company and the government clients they support. MANTECH applies and tests emerging technologies internally before recommending and deploying them externally.
This forward-looking approach drove MANTECH’s implementation of AI-driven support for all our employees - speeding operational success across the board for industry-leading performance and cost efficiency
