Capabilities
C4ISR Suite Design and Integration
Service websiteSystems engineering and integration of command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance suites for tactical vehicles. It evaluates system requirements from a system-of-systems perspective for platforms including MRAP, M-ATV, HMMWV, LVSR, MMPV, and MTVR.
- Ergonomics & Human Factors Engineering
Placement of components to prevent view obstruction, maintain safe distances during shock and vibration events, optimize user interface positioning, and ensure occupant comfort and egress.
- Antenna Optimization
Locational optimization of multiple co-located antennas on platform structures to reduce cosite interference and interoperability issues across diverse frequencies.
- Power & EMI Design
Custom power distribution and circuit protection configurations engineered to ensure safe, reliable power delivery across tactical vehicle electronics suites.
- Custom Mounting Provisions
Design, finite element analysis certification, and fabrication management of custom metalwork to safely secure C4ISR components.
- Custom Cabling
In-house design and fabrication of custom cabling to address physical integration constraints and warfighter operational needs.
- Field Maintenance Design
Integration planning designed from an operator perspective to ensure systems withstand operational environments and support rapid field repairs.
Continuous Process Improvement
Service websiteProcess improvement services combining quality and performance management systems to reduce production and labor costs across engineering, integration, and logistics projects.
- Process Improvement Framework
Structured application of the Lean Six Sigma DMAIC methodology to identify waste, establish process baselines, and implement efficient workflow solutions.
- Data Collection and Analysis
Web-based and automated metrics collection designed to evaluate raw data and generate actionable process improvement solutions with minimal workforce intrusion.
