General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), a business unit of General Dynamics, has introduced its Vision, Innovation and Acceleration (VIA) strategy to speed the development and deployment of advanced technologies for government missions.
The VIA strategy also expands on the parent company’s broader $1.2 billion capital investment in facility expansion and advanced manufacturing announced in 2025. According to GDIT, the new plan will channel additional resources into research and development, technology labs, and workforce development while focusing on strategic sectors such as the future battlespace, border security, and government modernization.
The strategy also emphasizes expanding technology solutions across areas, including artificial intelligence, cloud, cybersecurity, 5G, digital engineering, and quantum computing. GDIT plans to strengthen collaboration with technology firms such as Amazon Web Services, Google Public Sector, ServiceNow, GitLab, and IonQ to co-develop solutions tested in research environments and applied to operational programs.
Amy Gilliland, President of GDIT, said, “Mission success in today’s dynamic geopolitical and technological environment demands agility, speed and innovation.” She added that the VIA initiative “reinforces our long-standing commitment to invest in proven mission solutions to meet the government’s most pressing challenges now and in the future.”
