Salesforce is increasing its focus on national security by creating Missionforce, a business unit to integrate AI, cloud, and platform technology into defense workflows across personnel, logistics, and decision-making. Missionforce will be led by Kendall Collins, chief business officer and chief of staff to Marc Benioff, who joined Salesforce in 2023. Salesforce maintains contracts across federal agencies and multiple military branches, including the Army, Navy, and Air Force, though contract counts and revenue are not publicly disclosed. Other major AI firms are offering government-specific products and discount pricing to federal agencies.
