SAICHashiCorp Supports Continuous Delivery at SAIC
SAIC, an industrials organization in the United States, uses Terraform from HashiCorp to support continuous delivery for engineering teams.
When build and deploy outgrew homegrown tracking, SAIC brought in HashiCorp.
“From the United States, industrials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer.”
“HashiCorp (an IBM company) provides infrastructure automation software, including Terraform and Vault, for cloud provisioning and secrets.”

| Capability | Continuous delivery stays visible to adjacent teams through Terraform |
| Capability | Engineering teams work from the same Terraform record for build and deploy |
| Capability | Build and deploy can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
Story
SAIC grew build and deploy faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, industrials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Engineering teams were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Terraform put continuous delivery on HashiCorp. HashiCorp (an IBM company) provides infrastructure automation software, including Terraform and Vault, for cloud provisioning and secrets. SAIC keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so engineering teams do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier continuous delivery. Build and deploy is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join engineering teams without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
