ManTech and Google Cloud are to provide cloud and analytics services to the U.S. federal government. The partnership represents a strategic focus to jointly serve the mission needs of the federal government.
The new pact also makes ManTech as a Google Cloud Premier Partner — a label that means the government technology integrator can use Google Cloud’s big data and computing services to create new analytics and other solutions for customers.
Google Cloud will provide its Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and ManTech will provide the operational and management support earned through decades of experience advancing government missions.
Herndon, Virginia-based ManTech is also in the partnership networks of other cloud hosting giants such as Microsoft and Amazon Web Services, the latter of which ManTech said earlier in April it holds Migration and DevOps competencies in deploying AWS for agencies.
“ManTech has one overarching, strategic goal for this partnership with Google Cloud – to create and deliver outstanding value for government customers,” said Kevin M. Phillips, ManTech’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President.
“Our work together will be the benchmark for quality, security and innovation in serving agencies’ rapidly evolving technology needs.”
Google Cloud for the Federal Government
Increasingly, public sector organizations, including US federal government agencies, are interested in moving mission critical workloads and applications to the cloud.
Many are choosing Google Cloud for its proven capabilities in public cloud infrastructure, expertise in areas such as AI, ML and analytics, support for hybrid and multi-cloud deployments via Anthos, and integrated workforce collaboration tools.
In partnering with Google, ManTech eyed an open and flexible architecture for the purpose of interoperability across other hyperscale cloud providers and an emphasis on security.
“This partnership combines Google Cloud’s secure, scalable infrastructure with ManTech’s decades of experience supporting the U.S. government,” said Mike Daniels, Vice President of Global Public Sector at Google Cloud.
“We’re excited to work closely with ManTech to help government agencies grow their digital capabilities, efficiently serve constituents, and complete their most critical missions with the cloud.”
One of those missions will be to help agencies manage the large amounts of data they have and put it to work. The companies will use Google’s cloud as a managed application platform for users to access and analyse data across other providers.
“The partnership grows out of successful collaborations between ManTech and Google Cloud to accelerate government’s digital transformation,” said Matt Tait, ManTech’s Chief Operating Officer.
“Look for exciting breakthroughs coupling Google Cloud’s leading, secure infrastructure and cutting-edge capabilities with ManTech’s government services expertise spanning more than five decades.”
