We recently collaborated with University of Colorado Boulder - Leeds School of Business master's students Setodji Davito and Talal Syed on their experiential project "AI-Powered Category Management: SSIQ" with us, developing an innovative platform that delivers ITAR-compliant, human-reviewed supplier shortlists in under 3 minutes. This 5-stage pipeline seamlessly integrates market intelligence, compliance screening, and supplier evaluation while maintaining critical human oversight throughout to revolutionize how we identify optimal sources of supply.   Special thanks to: ▪️Setodji Davito and Talal Syed ▪️Tate Wazenegger, our Senior Director of Supply Chain Management for his mentorship ▪️Professor Fairy Gandhi of CU Boulder Leeds School ▪️Our dedicated team: Alex Randall, Jared Sheehan, and Dylan Clark, MBA, CPIM   Innovation + mentoring, this is one of our favorite types of relationships. Together, we're pioneering the intersection of AI and supply chain innovation!   #SupplyChain #AI #Innovation #CUBoulder #SierraSpace

We're proud to celebrate our team members—Drake Nimz, Todd Treichel, Trent Cybela, and Jared Ruzicka—who served as Rocket Judges at the NASA Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium’s Collegiate Rocket Launch (CRL) competition! As AIAA (American Institute for Aeronautics & Astronautics) - Wisconsin Section volunteers, they evaluated student teams from critical design review all the way through launch.   By sharing their expertise, they’re helping the next generation of aerospace engineers gain hands-on experience in rocket design, construction, and flight.   #SierraSpace #STEM #Aerospace #Rocketry #WSGC #AIAA #FutureEngineers

Our team members across all locations embraced their inner Jedi today in celebration of May the 4th! From Jedis to Droids, the Force was certainly strong with our team today. #MayThe4thBeWithYou #StarWarsDay
