Palantir, the intelligence community software vendor with a name ripped from the pages of The Lord of the Rings, has notched its first contract with the National Nuclear Security Administration, the Denver-based company said Monday.
Palantir’s pact to serve as the software platform for the agency’s Safety Analytics, Forecasting, and Evaluation Reporting (SAFER) project is worth up to about $90 million over five years, the company wrote in a press release.
The National Nuclear Security Administration’s SAFER system will allow the agency to track and analyze safety data across its national network of labs, plants and sites.
