The U.S. Army on Thursday said it was consolidating dozens of contracts into a single enterprise deal with Palantir , giving it volume-based discounts and the option to purchase up to $10 billion from the software provider over 10 years.

The software company’s enterprise contract over the next decade cements its central role in warfighting for years to come.

Denver-based software firm Palantir Technologies secured a 10-year, $10 billion contract to improve the U.S. Army's military readiness and efficiency.
