## Definition
**Army Vantage** is the United States Army's enterprise data platform built with Palantir technology to integrate data and support readiness, logistics, personnel, financial, and operational decision-making.
## Modern Defense and Cybersecurity Role
Vantage makes a commercial data platform part of the Army's institutional nervous system. It supplies shared data products and decision support across headquarters and operational organizations rather than confining Palantir to a single intelligence cell.
## Chronological Proximity
The Army selected Palantir for Vantage in 2019 and expanded the partnership with a major contract announced in December 2024.
## Relational Proximity
The Army supplies authoritative mission and enterprise data; [[wiki/Foundry|Foundry]] and the [[wiki/Palantir Ontology|Ontology]] integrate it; [[wiki/Forward-Deployed Engineer|forward-deployed engineers]] translate Army workflows into software.
