Partnership to develop rugged edge AI/ML compute solutions to improve cognitive dominance for U.S. Special Operations Forces
Agreement aligns with OSS’ strategy to expand offerings and establish embedded relationships across the U.S. Department of Defense
ESCONDIDO, Calif., May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — One Stop Systems, Inc. (“OSS” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: OSS), a leader in rugged Enterprise Class compute for artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and sensor processing at the Edge, today announced that the Company has entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) to create advanced, durable High Performance edge Computer (HPeC) solutions that can process vast amounts of data quickly and efficiently in the field.
Under the CRADA, OSS will demonstrate its current, cutting-edge AI and ML computing solutions designed specifically for rugged, edge environments to advance USSOCOM maritime platform performance and capabilities. The partnership leverages OSS’ expertise in designing Enterprise Class compute systems that operate in extreme conditions such as harsh climates or remote locations. Solutions under development will support a strategic initiative of USSOCOM, which seeks to enhance the situational awareness, decision-making, and operational capabilities of special operations forces (SOF) in maritime operations. By leveraging AI and ML at the edge, USSOCOM aims to improve cognitive dominance—enabling warfighters to process information faster than their adversaries, to make more informed decisions, and to ultimately achieve mission objectives with greater precision.
“Our collaboration with USSOCOM will provide warfighters with more sophisticated and intelligent tools to improve their performance in increasingly complex and dynamic combat scenarios, thus reinforcing their competitive advantage on the battlefield,” commented Robert Kalebaugh, OSS VP of Sales. “SOF’s role within the U.S. Department of Defense continues to evolve across echelons, from man-worn to command center operations, and OSS is uniquely qualified to support the needs of U.S. Special Operation Forces.”
“Today’s announcement also reflects our multi-year strategy focused on expanding our offerings and establishing relationships across all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. The USSOCOM CRADA represents an important pillar as we continue to forge a relationship with one of the most innovative commands within the Department of Defense. We believe the Armed Forces will accelerate the adaptation of these types of Enterprise Class architecture which OSS provides for AI/ML, sensor fusion and autonomy applications across maritime, land, air, and space domains,” concluded Mr. Kalebaugh.
