How General Dynamics Runs Environment Provisioning on Snyk Code
General Dynamics, an industrials organization in the United States, uses Snyk Code from Snyk to support environment provisioning for platform engineers.
Teams at General Dynamics moved infrastructure as code onto Snyk after local tools started to collide.
“Industrials work at General Dynamics spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States.”
“Platform engineers asked for a shared way to run environment provisioning without freezing local judgment.”

Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Handoffs in environment provisioning sit in a shared queue instead of a mailbox trail |
| Risk and compliance | Snyk Code is the governed place platform engineers use for environment provisioning |
| Capability | New joiners can see how environment provisioning actually runs |
Story
Industrials work at General Dynamics spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Infrastructure as code was splitting across regional habits. Platform engineers asked for a shared way to run environment provisioning without freezing local judgment.
Snyk (Snyk Code) is what they standardized on. Snyk helps developers find and fix vulnerabilities in code, open source, containers, and infrastructure as code. General Dynamics uses it as the system of record for infrastructure as code, with platform engineers as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
