GRAPEVINE, Texas, June 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BILT Incorporated, creators of 3D Intelligent Instructions®, has been awarded a $15 million Strategic Funding Increase (STRATFI) contract by the United States Air Force. The multi-year initiative will expand interactive training and maintenance capabilities across a range of Air Force operations, enabling airmen to complete complex tasks faster, more accurately, and with greater confidence.
The AFWERX award, funded by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), is one of the most competitive funding vehicles within the Department of Defense and represents a major step forward in the USAF’s modernization of technical training and sustainment efforts. BILT’s mobile platform and spatial computing capabilities will be used to enhance readiness, safety, and standardization across mission-critical roles.
“We’re honored to support airmen with the knowledge and tools they need in high-stakes environments,” said BILT President & COO Ahmed Qureshi. “This award reflects the strength of our technology and the dedication of our team to deliver scalable, intuitive solutions that meet the evolving demands of national defense.”
The contract builds on a series of successful pilots and Phase I/II SBIR programs that demonstrated BILT’s ability to transform traditional manuals into 3D guides. The platform allows airmen to access interactive instructions on mobile devices and immersive procedures on Apple Vision Pro, both on and off the grid.
