Palantir Technologies (NYSE: PLTR) stock fell over 3% in the early trading hours on Tuesday following the announcement of a contract win from the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) on Friday.
Palantir (PLTR) announced on Friday its selection by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for delivering an Electromagnetic Battle Management – Joint Decision Support (EMBM-J DS) Prototype. This initiative will equip the Department of Defense with advanced software for supporting Joint Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations (JEMSO).

Under this agreement, Palantir will collaborate closely with DISA PEO Spectrum, as well as USSTRATCOM and Combatant Commands, to facilitate advanced mission analysis, course of action (COA) development, COA analysis and scoring, wargaming, and product production. The Impact Level 6 web-based EMBM-J DS prototype will also sync with Service tools and processes for Electromagnetic Battle Management, ensuring maximum interoperability and coordination across the joint force.
Betsy Park, the program manager of EMBM-J, emphasized the significance of this technological advancement, stating,
“The ability to ingest component-level courses of action and schemes of maneuver into an overall joint plan and evaluate the associated electromagnetic spectrum opportunities and risks will be a significant technological leap forward for EMS operational planners.
