In today’s AI‑first world, information is no longer just a record—it’s the fuel for mission success. Yet, as government agencies race to adopt generative and agentic AI, one truth stands out: without context‑rich content, governance, and security, AI fails.

In today’s AI‑first world, information is no longer just a record—it’s the fuel for mission success. Yet, as government agencies race to adopt generative and agentic AI, one truth stands out: without context‑rich content, governance, and security, AI fails.

Join OpenText President and Chief Customer Officer, Paul Duggan and our U.S. Public Sector team for this timely and highly relevant keynote, where we’ll explore how OpenText is reimagining information management to help federal civilian agencies, national security agencies and state/local/education organizations unlock the full potential of AI.

You’ll learn about the three imperatives shaping work:

  • Context at scale: How connecting structured and unstructured data across clouds, applications, and geographies turns static content into actionable intelligence—accelerating case processing, strengthening decision-making, and advancing mission outcomes.
  • Secure by design: Why governance, compliance, and security are non‑negotiable in an era of autonomous workflows and AI‑to‑AI decision‑making, and how aligning with frameworks such as FedRAMP, NIST, and evolving Executive Orders ensures trusted data that delivers trusted AI outcomes.
  • Choice and openness: Why multi-cloud architectures are critical for flexibility and innovation, helping agencies modernize legacy systems, reduce complexity, and support Zero Trust initiatives.

From having conversations with your data to orchestrating secure AI agents across critical business processes, this keynote will show how organizations can move beyond hype to practical, trusted outcomes—gaining smarter insights, acting confidently, and creating limitless possibilities.

Discover why secure information management for AI is not just a technology strategy—it’s the foundation for trust, resilience, and mission impact in this evolving era of intelligent government work.

A "wandering officer" is a person who has been fired for misconduct, then secures a new job at a different law enforcement agency by lying about their record. Join this session to learn about how OpenText is helping to promote public safety by providing a state-wide, highly secure list of credentialed officers; and how a similar approach can address risks around wandering healthcare workers or educators.

Hilary Johnson
Hilary Johnson
Industry Senior Strategist for Manufacturing, Transportation, & High-Tech
OpenText

OpenText and R DEX Systems have partnered to deploy Aviator IoT at Red River Army Depot, one of the U.S. Army’s largest maintenance facilities. The Aviator platform connects and analyzes data from countless IoT sources, breaking down silos and unlocking fine grained insight into vehicles, equipment, and production lines. Users gain a comprehensive overview of their fleets and robotics systems (including the location, performance, and usage of critical assets, as well as the efficiency of depot processes) from the shop floor to command. Join this session to see how the Army, OpenText, and R DEX are using AI, robotics, and advanced sensor technologies to cut downtime, streamline logistics, and boost the resilience and sustainability of military supply chains, and how the same approach can be applied to other depots, facilities, and industrial operations.
