Oracle Corp. will continue to fight the terms of the Pentagon’s $10 billion winner-take-all cloud computing contract after being kicked out of the bidding process this month, according to the company’s chief lobbyist.
Oracle Executive Vice President Kenneth Glueck, who leads the company’s Washington policy shop, said in an interview with Bloomberg News that the company will continue to challenge requirements for the project known as JEDI in a lawsuit before the U.S. Court of Federal Claims and in conversations with lawmakers on Capitol Hill.
