Description

In an era of unprecedented operational demand, the Texas Military Department (TMD) is moving beyond legacy limitations to forge a data-dominant force. From the massive scale of Operation Lone Star to the rapid-response requirements of catastrophic hurricanes, the ability to mobilize personnel and resources hinges on one factor: actionable intelligence. This session explores how TMD is dismantling entrenched data silos to build a unified, AI-powered Common Operating Picture (COP).

Attendees will gain a behind-the-scenes look at how the Department is transitioning from a "starving for insights" data environment to a predictive model that enhances situational awareness, optimizes supply chains, and ensures vehicle fleet dominance. We will share the strategic roadmap for TXNet, a unified IL-2/IL-4 infrastructure and our partnerships with the Texas State Agencies for data interoperability for mission success .
