Shreveport, LA – The Small Business Consulting Corporation (SBCC), a leading provider of automated data and analytic programs for the Department of Defense (DoD), today announced that it has achieved “Awardable” status through the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office’s (CDAO) Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace.  

The Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is the premier offering of Tradewinds, the DoD’s suite of tools and services designed to accelerate the procurement and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML), data, and analytics capabilities. 

SBCC’s solutions are designed to enable better decision-making, improve situational awareness, and optimize business processes for their government clients. Programs are currently implemented across the US Air Force (USAF) with products designed and delivered in as little as three months.  

“We don't just admire innovative ideas, we operationalize them," remarked SBCC CEO Gerald Goodfellow. "Air Force clients turn to the SBCC team to address their toughest challenges. Whether enabling access to advanced technologies or leveraging software tools in government-owned data environments, SBCC has quickly become the USAF's preferred problem solver.” Kavooss Shamloo, Director of Data Engineering & Analytics at SBCC, continued saying, “SBCC has made radical improvements to the Air Force’s data modernization efforts by providing organic capabilities using a scientific approach to increase the autonomy and mobility of the warfighter.”  

SBCC's video, Transformational Digital Engineering Capability, accessible only by government customers on the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace, presents an actual use case currently in operation with the DoD. SBCC worked directly with USAF operators to assess capability gaps, and then produced an in-house custom-coded program to remove user pain points, returning 500 weekly manhours to operators, increasing productivity by 90% while minimizing human error, and saving $1.5M by eliminating unnecessary licensing and maintenance fees. 

SBCC was recognized among a competitive field of applicants to the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace whose solutions demonstrated innovation, scalability, and potential impact on DoD missions. Government customers interested in viewing the video solution can create a Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace account at tradewindAI.com.
