Base Operations Partners with Carahsoft to Bring Street-Level Threat Intelligence to Government

Base Operations has partnered with Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®. Under the agreement, Carahsoft serves as Master Aggregator for Base Operations, making the platform available to federal, state, and local government agencies through Carahsoft's reseller partners and contract vehicles, including [CONTRACT VEHICLES — e.g. GSA MAS, NASA SEWP V, NASPO ValuePoint, ITES-SW2].

Why this matters for public sector teams

Force protection officers, installation defense planners, and federal law enforcement analysts already know what they need: a consistent, defensible picture of the threat environment around every site they are responsible for. What slows them down is the path from requirement to contract.

Carahsoft solves that. Agencies can now procure Base Operations through the vehicles and resellers they already work with, alongside the SBIR Phase III sole-source authority that any federal agency can use based on Base Operations' active Phase II work with the U.S. Air Force. Two clean procurement paths, one platform.

What Base Operations brings to government

Base Operations decodes the world's threat landscape into clear, comparable, street-level intelligence built for operators rather than data scientists. The platform aggregates more than 25,000 global sources, including local and national police records, government feeds, emergency calls, and open datasets, into a single operating picture of crime and unrest.

Federal teams can assess any U.S. address with 99% national coverage, and locations across 5,000+ cities worldwide, at 0.1-mile granularity. That means one consistent, transparent methodology for comparing risk across installations, field offices, and travel destinations, at home and at forward locations abroad.

• BaseScore. An explainable 0 to 100 risk index that lets a planner brief leadership with defensible numbers instead of high, medium, or low.
• BaseEngine. Proprietary AI modeling that fills coverage gaps in sparse-data regions, corrects for changes in reporting, and forecasts emerging risk from historical, seasonal, and spatial patterns.
• BaseFusion. Ingest an agency's own incident data and score it alongside global threat intelligence for a mission-specific picture.
• Briefing-ready reporting and REST API. Export assessments in seconds, or embed BaseScore into travel-authorization systems, installation security dashboards, and C2 or geospatial platforms. Deployment in under 30 days.

Teams using the platform report assessments running up to 5x faster, intelligence task time dropping roughly 70%, and the same team covering 3x more sites without adding headcount.

Extending the threat picture into the airspace

The same approach now covers the airspace above installations and critical infrastructure. Base Operations' Counter-UAS analytics aggregate years of drone-sighting data from sources including the FAA, AFNORTH, the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, and the Aviation Safety Reporting System into a unified small-unmanned-aircraft threat picture.

Every event is geocoded and linked to a specific site, normalized for population, and scored with a multi-factor risk model that surfaces seasonal peaks, temporal patterns, and statistical outliers. Analysis of Air Mobility Command data found that roughly two-thirds of drone events occur within ten miles of military installations, with a quarter concentrated around just 25 sites. Nighttime events in isolated areas stand out as the highest-priority threats.

For security forces and installation commanders, that intelligence translates directly into decisions: which sites warrant a Tier 1 defense posture, how to time counter-UAS staffing and maintenance windows, and how to plan security for events and air shows. The Counter-UAS work originated under Base Operations' active SBIR Phase II effort with Air Mobility Command, where it is in use today.

Proven with the mission, trusted by the enterprise

Base Operations is live with U.S. Air Force Air Mobility Command under an active SBIR Phase II contract and is used by more than 25 Fortune 1000 enterprises. The platform is SOC 2 compliant, collects no personally identifiable information, and is built for unclassified and CUI-eligible handling.

From our CEO

"The agencies we work with do not lack data. They lack a consistent, defensible way to turn it into decisions about where to put people and resources, on the ground and now in the air. Carahsoft gives every federal, state, and local team a straightforward way to put that capability on contract."
