Terzo

Only one of the five U.S. military services has ever passed an audit.

The Marine Corps. That’s it. And Congress has now mandated that every Pentagon account be auditable by 2028, against a budget near $1.5 trillion.

Getting there means knowing what every contract obligates an agency to pay, bill, and recover. Today, much of the federal government’s contract data still sits in physical filing cabinets.

Few people understand that machinery better than Ambassador and General Douglas Lute, who recently joined Terzo’s Board of Directors. He spent 35 years in the U.S. Army, retired as a three-star general, served as Deputy National Security Advisor under two administrations, and was U.S. Ambassador to NATO from 2013 to 2017.

Our CEO Brandon Card sat down with Doug to talk about what the visibility gap looks like inside the government, and what becomes possible when an agency can finally see its commitments in real time.

The same problem Terzo solves for the Fortune 500 exists in government at a far greater scale. We’ve identified over $1 billion in measurable impact for our enterprise customers.
The government runs on contracts. It’s time to turn them into capital.

DPW NYC delivered. And the shift is real.

Procurement leaders joined our booth talking obligations, missed dollars, supplier risk - in the language of the CFO. No hand-holding. No explaining. They already know contracts are capital.

This is where the next generation of procurement gets built. Categories get defined. Software gets written. Trust gets built in person. And nowhere else.

That’s DPW. That’s why we keep coming back.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, stayed late, and made it unforgettable. You’re the reason this industry is moving fast.

Onward 💜
