Data Science and Analytics
AI & Power Platform Applications
Building on trusted data foundations, VISTA applies artificial intelligence and Microsoft Power Platform tools to transform insights into mission-driven action. This pillar moves beyond enterprise dashboards into predictive modeling, low-code applications, workflow automation, and conversational AI. By integrating AI/ML with Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Copilot tools, VISTA ensures that analytics flow seamlessly into daily mission operations. Leaders and staff can act on insights in real time, whether through predictive dashboards, automated workflows, or natural language assistants.

Our Expertise Includes:
VISTA develops AI/ML pipelines and models that convert mission data into predictive insight, anomaly detection, and natural language–based decision support. Continuous retraining and validation ensure that AI remains aligned with evolving operational requirements.
