Designation simplifies a procurement path for DoD customers to
access powerful annealing quantum computing technologies and
solutions to assist with achieving mission objectives
D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE:QBTS) (“D-Wave” or the “Company”), a
leader in quantum computing systems, software, and services and the
world’s first commercial supplier of quantum computers, today
announced it has achieved “Awardable” status through the Chief
Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office’s (CDAO) Tradewinds
Solutions Marketplace.
The Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is the premier offering of
the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) suite of tools and services for
accelerating the procurement and adoption of emerging technologies.
The marketplace will now include D-Wave’s annealing quantum
computing technology alongside other offerings like Artificial
Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML), data, and analytics
capabilities.
“It is an honor to be included in the Tradewinds Solutions
Marketplace for our innovative technology and potential ability to
help DoD solve complex real-world challenges,” said Dr. Alan
Baratz, CEO of D-Wave. “The 'Awardable' status on the marketplace
signifies that our technology meets the high standards required to
sell to the US government. D-Wave has a long history of developing
quantum applications to address national security problems, and we
look forward to working with US defense operations to help them
achieve mission objectives.”
D-Wave works with businesses, research institutions and
government agencies to provide quantum optimization for public and
private sector areas, including logistics and manufacturing, staff
scheduling, new drug discovery, sustainability, materials
simulation, and more.
“D-Wave is unique in that we are the only company that has a
real-time cloud accessible quantum computer and quantum
optimization applications in production today,” said Lorenzo
Martinelli, CRO of D-Wave. “These critical technological
achievements in quantum computing can move the Department of
Defense beyond research to using technology that could help provide
solutions today to challenges facing DoD and its service
branches.”
To become designated as “Awardable” on the Tradewinds
marketplace, D-Wave worked with Clipper Defense and submitted a
video, accessible only to government customers, that presents
actual use cases in which companies developed quantum optimization
applications including supply chain optimization and transportation
logistics. Our video outlines other potential optimization problems
facing DoD.
D-Wave was recognized among a competitive field of applicants to
the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace whose solutions demonstrated
innovation, scalability, and potential impact on DoD missions.
Government customers interested in viewing the video solution can
