The partners we build the federal AI stack on.
BlackArc Systems delivers agentic systems, AI training, and AI security in partnership with CTG Federal, on hardware and software from the OEMs the mission already runs. The technology below is what we compose into production systems.
Delivered with CTG Federal.
BlackArc Systems is the federal practice of BlackArc, delivered in partnership with CTG Federal. CTG Federal carries the federal contracting, the compliance posture, and the customer relationships. BlackArc provides the agentic systems, the AI training, and the AI security.
That split is the point. You contract through a CMMC Level 2 C3PAO and ISO 9001 prime that already serves 200+ federal customers, and you get a team that builds and runs AI systems for a living.

Dynatrace The models underneath the agents.
Anthropic / Claude
Frontier reasoning for agentic work where instruction-following and tool use carry the load. Used where a hosted, governed endpoint fits the security boundary.
Meta / Llama
Open-weight models you can host inside your enclave. The default when the data cannot leave the boundary and the model has to run where the work runs.
Open-weight models
We select and evaluate open-weight models per mission — fine-tuned, quantized, and served locally for air-gapped and classified delivery with zero external calls.
