Booz Allen Ventures Invests in ConductorAI to Accelerate Government Efficiency
MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) today announced that its corporate venture capital arm, Booz Allen Ventures, has made a strategic investment ConductorAI, a leading AI-driven platform that empowers U.S. federal government agencies to modernize operations and deliver faster, more efficient services and outcomes. ConductorAI empowers government users—from civilian agencies to the Department of Defense (DOD)—to rapidly compose, deploy, and manage AI-augmented workflows that turn manual, time-intensive procedures into human-in-the-loop processes. As missions become more complex and data volumes grow exponentially, ConductorAI leverages large language models (LLM) and agentic AI to automate time-consuming tasks—from foreign disclosure reviews and compliance tasks to citizen services and operational planning—driving greater speed, efficiency, and accelerating decision making at scale. 'The U.S. government is under growing pressure to modernize quickly while still relying on legacy systems,' said Shands Pickett, senior vice president of defense technology and strategy at Booz Allen. 'ConductorAI helps to bridge that gap, empowering teams to harness AI now without waiting on full system upgrades or migrations, and accelerating innovation across government, including mission-critical environments within DOD.' The platform is designed to support a wide variety of complex, document-based policy approvals, empowering workers and warfighters alike to deploy automation that enhances, rather than replaces, human judgment. ConductorAI is already gaining traction with multiple pilot engagements across key federal agencies. 'We built ConductorAI to solve the hardest problem in government: how to navigate bureaucracy quickly and reliably, to get licenses, permits, and approvals required for successful mission outcomes,' said Zachary Long, CEO of ConductorAI. 'This partnership with Booz Allen accelerates our ability to deliver AI-driven solutions that cut through the red tape, streamline complex workflows, and support the people driving critical government missions.' This latest investment reinforces Booz Allen's commitment to helping the government modernize quickly, efficiently, and securely with cost-effective, AI-powered solutions that work within existing systems and deliver immediate results. Built for secure, high-stakes government environments, the platform enables agencies to move faster, make better decisions, and do more with fewer resources. 'Our investment in ConductorAI reflects Booz Allen's continued commitment to accelerating government innovation through AI-powered, software-defined, and commercial-first solutions that drive greater agility and impact,' added James Gadea, Booz Allen Ventures. 'Conductor AI's mission-first culture and product maturity specifically position them to support the U.S. government's modernization efforts.' Since its launch, Booz Allen's $100 million corporate venture capital arm has made strategic investments in early-stage companies developing dual-use commercial technologies. ConductorAI marks the 15th Ventures investment, with a diversified portfolio that includes Albedo, Credo AI, HiddenLayer, Hidden Level, Latent AI, Quindar, RAIC Labs (formerly Synthetaic), Reality Defender, Reveal Technology, Scout AI, Second Front (2F), SEEQC, Shift5, and Starfish Space.

New Wearable Tech Tracks Astronauts' Sleep Quality on International Space Station
ISS National Lab-sponsored research on Axiom Mission 4 tests wearable tech to collect, analyze sleep data and readiness for critical tasks KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla., June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Everyone needs a good night's sleep to perform at their best—including astronauts. A technology demonstration launching to the International Space Station (ISS) on Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4) will test a wearable device that collects biometric data such as total sleep time and heart rate variability during sleep. The project, sponsored by the ISS National Laboratory®, is a collaborative effort between Booz Allen, Axiom Space, and Oura. The demonstration aims to utilize edge computing to process and analyze biometric data in near real time, enabling crew members to make informed decisions about whether they are prepared for critical tasks. "This technology will provide crew members with detailed insights into their sleep quality and biometrics, which will help them to understand how this directly impacts their fitness and ability to best execute their duties the next day," said Josh Arceneaux, director of human space flight at Booz Allen. If successful, the demonstration would highlight the potential to eliminate the need for ground communication for certain activities, allowing crew members to operate more autonomously. This capability will be increasingly vital for future long-duration missions, such as those to Mars, where communication delays and other challenges will become more prevalent. As with many commercial devices that track data on personal physical condition and performance, the information collected by each Oura Ring is sent to the company's corporate cloud for analysis and storage and then provided to the user via a smartphone app. In orbit, the data will be processed by an edge computing device and provided directly to the crew member for evaluation. "Ultimately, this demonstration will showcase whether we can collect, store, and analyze that data and empower crew members to make decisions without needing to connect to the ground," Arceneaux said. "This is part of a bigger objective to move abilities we're accustomed to having on the ground to use in spaceflight." Ax-4 is scheduled to launch no earlier than June 10, 2025, at 8:22 a.m. EDT, from Florida.

Why Booz Allen Hamilton Stock Fell Today
Following last week's disappointing earnings outlook, Wall Street analysts downgraded shares today. The stock is beginning to look quite cheap on a long-term basis. 10 stocks we like better than Booz Allen Hamilton › Shares of government technology consultancy Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) fell on Wednesday, down as much as 4.9% before recovering modestly to a 4% decline as of 1:37 p.m. ET. Booz Allen sold off by a double-digit number last Friday following its fiscal-fourth-quarter earnings release, before recovering a bit yesterday. But today, sell-side analysts downgraded their ratings and price targets, and these delayed negative takes from last week's earnings appear to be sending shares down again today. Today, analysts at Goldman Sachs downgraded Booz Allen Hamilton shares from neutral to sell, while lowering the firm's price target on shares from $108 to $94. As of this writing, Booz Allen's stock price is $104.75. The Goldman analysts downgraded shares because they now see medium-term earnings growth as "flat," given the new outlook from management on last Friday's conference call with analysts. On that call, management noted that it sees revenue growth between 0% and 4% in fiscal 2026 (ending in March 2026), down from 12.4% last year, with an adjusted (non-GAAP) earnings range of $6.20 to $6.55. That compares with $6.35 earnings last year. If by "the medium term" Goldman means the one-year outlook, it's right on that front. And if that remains the growth rate for Booz Allen going forward, then yes, the current multiple of around 16.5 could be correct, or even a little high. Goldman seems a bit short-term-oriented and pessimistic here, assuming this year's DOGE cuts are a one-time reset. Booz Allen projected a low double-digit decline in its civil business this year, which makes up 35% of its revenue. But that means its defense and intelligence businesses, which make up 65% of revenue, are still likely to grow in the double digits, in order for the whole company to reach management's 2% overall growth projection. Of note, Booz Allen has grown at an 11.7% organic rate over the past three years. But if the civil business stabilizes after this year, it seems like Booz Allen should continue to resume its prior growth rate in 2027. That means its P/E multiple could go back to the low-20s, which has been about its average over the past decade. Thus, long-term-oriented investors may wish to look at Booz Allen shares on this recent weakness.
