Jose Hidalgo Leading FTI in Accelerating U.S. Military Readiness Through Data Superiority

Frontier Technology Inc. (FTI) President Jose Hidalgo is leading the charge in accelerating U.S. military readiness through advanced data solutions. With a focus on data superiority, FTI has been developing cutting-edge technology and services to help the Defense Department and intelligence community identify threats quickly and make informed decisions with speed and confidence.

Hidalgo emphasized the importance of collaboration and coordination across services, highlighting the need for agile, AI/ML-driven technology to meet the demands of today’s rapidly evolving environment. FTI has invested heavily in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and predictive analytics to deliver on these capabilities, with a portfolio of technologies developed through government and company investment.

One of FTI’s key solutions, the Asset Maintenance and Risk Analytics (AMARA) system, uses AI/ML-driven data analysis to predict system and equipment failures before they occur, helping manage critical combat asset readiness challenges. Additionally, FTI has integrated AI into its wargaming solution, leveraging historical data to plan and execute next-generation wargaming strategies.

To support the development of new solutions, FTI has created an advanced digital environment that maximizes the value delivered to customers. By spreading singular investments across multiple solutions, FTI aims to provide new capabilities to multiple branches of the military faster and at a lower cost. The company’s cybersecurity offerings have also been consolidated under the FTI Information Advantage Group, providing advanced capabilities to help DoD customers optimize their cyber defenses.

FTI’s efforts have not gone unnoticed, as the company has recently secured spots on several multiple-award defense contracts with a total maximum value of over $2 billion. Hidalgo stated that FTI is pursuing additional competitive opportunities and engaging in late-stage conversations to further expand its impact in the defense sector.

As the U.S. military faces evolving and escalating risks, Hidalgo emphasized FTI’s commitment to innovation and providing warfighters with the data-focused solutions they need to succeed in their missions. With a focus on staying ahead of adversaries and ensuring readiness at all times, FTI is poised to continue making significant contributions to national defense efforts.
