# Quantum Guide Outlines Government Capability Areas

A sponsored executive guide from Classiq Technologies presents quantum software, application development, workforce readiness, and centers of excellence as potential capability-building areas for government, including the Department of Defense. The guide is not legislation and announces no appropriations, procurement mandates, contract awards, or implementation deadlines, so it signals possible future demand rather than a funded opportunity.

- Procurement teams can treat quantum software, technical evaluation, application development, and workforce training as areas to assess for future capability needs, without assuming a current solicitation or budget.
- Contractors offering quantum software or related technical and training services may use the guide’s focus areas to inform capability planning; it does not establish a procurement requirement or guarantee demand.
- The guide is sponsored by Classiq Technologies, which offers quantum software; procurement professionals should distinguish the sponsor’s perspective from agency policy or acquisition commitments.
