Management cited continued demand for Maven across the joint force: the platform had more than 100,000 users and was made available to all military services, beyond combatant commands, and to many combat support agencies. Demand is extending to tactical operations in disconnected environments, ashore and afloat, with DORA bringing Maven capabilities to disconnected operations. Ryan Taylor also said the Army awarded Palantir a prime agreement to produce eight TITAN systems.
