The security and well-being of our nation are directly impacted by our ability to deliver on customer promises. Thus, ensuring our perfect alignment with those customers’ challenges, mandates, operations, and ambitions is critical. At Hitachi Vantara Federal, we pride ourselves on our mission-centric approach to delivering on those customer promises and our methodology of working hand in hand with our customers to build meaningful solutions addressing their data challenges. To us, mission-centricity is not a corporate goal but rather embedded into our identity as an organization and is reflected in all the mission outcomes we power for our customers and partners.

Our core principles of trust, agility, and excellence are at the foundation of our service to the United States federal government. These core tenets guide us to provide unmatched solutions to our esteemed customers, which include all 16 cabinet agencies, every Armed Forces branch, and several intelligence agencies.

Trust is a guiding principle that permeates every aspect of our operations. We firmly believe in our business’s reliability, capability, and integrity, which form the bedrock of our interactions. Trust is vital for fostering effective collaborations with our customers, partners, and our team members. By nurturing a culture of trust, we encourage open communication, transparency, and mutual support, which are crucial in delivering exceptional results.

Agility is critical to delivering relevant and practical solutions in an ever-evolving landscape of national security and citizen services. We embrace change within our customers’ environments and mission operations with efficiency and an eye toward the future. We understand that innovation and progress stem from challenging the status quo. Our team approaches change with creativity, focus, and speed, enabling us to adapt and create value for our customers in even the most challenging situations.

Excellence is more than just a goal; it is engrained in the very fabric of our culture. It’s not just about what we do but how we do what we do that sets us apart. We are committed to being the best at delivering solutions and services that exceed customer expectations. Every team member in our organization is dedicated to continuous improvement, innovation, and pushing the boundaries of excellence to achieve unparalleled results.

Being mission-centric means aligning our entire organization around our customers’ critical objectives and needs. We prioritize understanding and fulfilling their missions above all else. By putting their success and goals at the forefront, we cultivate an unwavering dedication to providing the best possible solutions and services.
