PASADENA, Calif. Artificial intelligence (AI) decision intelligence company Virtualitics announced the renewal of its Automated Master Storage Planning (A-MSP) operational deployment contract with the U.S. Aor Force (USAF) as part of a Phase III Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award. 

The Virtualitics announcement of the contract renewal states that the Phase III designation proves the maturity and commercial readiness of A-MSP, moving beyond research and development into full operational deployment; the Air Force is attempting to enhance its readiness posture by using the Virtualitics tools to optimize munitions storage operations through advanced AI and data-driven analytics.

According to the announcement, the A-MSP solution -- part of Virtualitics' Integrated Readiness Optimization (IRO) Materiel product suite that is designed to optimize inventory storage and movement under stringent warehousing and safety constraints -- is aimed at dramatically reducing the time required for munitions personnel to respond to operational requirements and increasing organizations' safety posture by reducing the potential for human error in complex calculations.
