The Booz Allen RPTI Team
Booz Allen RPTI Partnership
The nature of ARDEC’s RPTI requirements demands more than the typical arms-length relationship between government and prime contractor, and between prime contractor and subcontractors. Booz Allen developed the vision for a partnership that would understand that RPTI support is not a series of single transitions; rather, it is a long-term engagement where all stakeholders, starting with the prime and including each subcontractor, are actively engaged in helping meet the challenges ARDEC faces over the next decade.
Booz Allen’s breadth stretches far beyond local office capabilities. Our vast reachback capability can bring technical skill sets across the entire scope of the RPTI effort. Our team of 25 subcontractors, each selected for their unique capabilities and depth across the contract requirements, allow us to provide our clients with a value-added resource to help them accomplish their missions. We understand the environment in which government agencies must function. Our capabilities available through the ARDEC RPTI contract allow clients to reach Booz Allen’s comprehensive expertise quickly to accomplish their missions.
