How to Buy Black Forest

The Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is a streamlined hub for Department of Defense customers to procure leading-edge technologies that address the DoD's most significant challenges in the artificial intelligence and machine learning, data and analytics space. All awardable solutions have been assessed through complex scoring rubrics and competitive procedures, and are available to government customers with a Marketplace account.

Public sector customers can find Black Forest products through Carahsoft and its reseller network, using contract vehicles already in place across federal, state and local government and education.

US customers can procure Black Forest through 4xBolt, with support on solution design, deployment and ongoing account management alongside the licence itself.

UK public sector customers can access Craxel through Constellia under the NVFI route, giving buying organizations a compliant and familiar path to contract without running a separate procurement exercise.

Craxel is also JOSCAR approved, the Joint Supply Chain Accreditation Register used across the UK aerospace, defense and security sectors. Craxel UK is Cyber Essentials Plus certified and a signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant.

UK public sector organisations, including central government, local authorities, health and the wider public sector, can procure Black Forest through the Digital Marketplace without running a separate competition. Terms and pricing are already agreed under the framework, which shortens the route from requirement to contract.

Craxel is registered on ESA-STAR, the European Space Agency's supplier registration and tendering system, supporting participation in ESA activities and tenders.

Black Forest is available as a private cloud offering, deployed into infrastructure you control so your data never leaves your environment. It runs on commodity hardware and any cloud or container platform with Docker and Kubernetes, on premises, at the edge or in a sovereign region.

Customers retain ownership of their data, formats, ontologies, queries and access policies, with no vendor lock-in. Licensing is direct from Craxel UK Ltd or Craxel, Inc. depending on your location and contracting requirements.
