V2X Inc., previously Vertex/Vectrus, is a $3.4 billion organization that provides technology and services solutions in over 200 locations worldwide for government and commercial clients, employing 15.4k people. VPS, formerly Vertex Professional Services and Raytheon Professional Services (RPS), is part of V2X’s Global Mission Training and Sustainment (GMTS) division. VPS was rebranded in January 2024, and quickly became recognizable in the marketplace, being similar to its previous RPS brand, and has gained market traction throughout 2024.
The metaverse continues to be sought as an environment for onboarding and safety training (defense clients) and showcasing clients’ products. VPS is leveraging AI/GenAI more than anticipated, notably in administrative work, training design frameworks for speedy content creation, real-time translation, and client support. It has also built a proprietary closed LLM. It will examine how GenAI can intelligently drive competitive advantage for its clients, curate relevant skills-related content, and identify new skills and content as jobs evolve.
An organization looking for innovative learning services/solutions using the latest modalities and platforms from a vendor with a history in systems engineering and working with highly sophisticated (and regulated) government/military and commercial clients in rapidly transforming sectors should consider VPS.
