Sovereign Architecture for Contested Environments
Design Authority for mission-critical systems. 15+ years of Naval R&D providing architectural governance, risk mitigation, and certifiable interoperability; not promises, but evidence-backed engineering.
Design Authority Domains
What We Actually Deliver: Auditing, Governance, Risk Mitigation
Capability Gap & DOTMLPF-P Analysis
Clinical assessment of operational capability gaps and alignment of technical solutions with defense doctrine. We identify integration risks before they become operational failures, and deliver documented governance artifacts that defend your architecture through certification and operational evolution.
Capability Gap Analysis
Technical Sovereignty & MOSA Governance
Architectural auditing to eliminate vendor lock-in and restore technical sovereignty. We enforce open standards governance (MOSA/FACE) that enable competitive upgrades and long-term platform independence. The deliverable: A defensible architecture blueprint and governance model that prevents future technical 'capture'.
MOSA/FACE Architecture
Airworthiness & Certification Assurance
Design Authority oversight for safety-critical systems. We provide the architectural governance required to achieve certification under ARP4754A, DO-178C, and DO-254; we deliver the traceability artifacts that ensure those certifications survive operational evolution and competitive pressure.
Advanced Systems Engineering
Deep expertise in defense systems architecture, NATO governance, safety-critical assurance, and sovereign systems design. We bridge doctrine requirements with rigorous technical implementation for mission-critical autonomous operations.

Evidence of Design Authority Intervention (NDA-Protected Details)
The cases below demonstrate our Design Authority methodology applied to real-world mission-critical challenges. Details are abbreviated to protect client confidentiality; full technical reports available under NDA.
The GAMAN Methodology
Rigorous Systems Engineering; Not Software
Proprietary Architectural Governance for Deterministic Control
The GAMAN Methodology is our proprietary approach to the architectural governance of heterogeneous defense systems. It is not a software product; it is a rigorous methodological logic grounded in 15+ years of Naval R&D and validated through multiple mission-critical deployments. We deliver three critical artifacts: the architectural blueprint, the decision traceability matrix, and the design authority governance model. These ensure your systems are deterministic, certifiable, interoperable; and defensible through certification audits, competitive pressure, and operational evolution. Every design decision is documented and traceable. If the auditor asks, the answer is already in your record.
Deterministic Command & Control Governance
Rigorous protocol specification, verification, and traceability for bounded latency, anti-jam resilience, and autonomous operation under contested conditions. Deliverable: Protocol specification with formal verification documentation.
Cryptographic Binding of Command Authority
Rigorous architectural auditing to ensure cryptographic binding of command authority, proof-of-provenance for all critical system state transitions, and tamper-detection governance under contested conditions. Deliverable: Security architecture report with formal threat model validation and post-quantum resilience assessment.
Design Authority Governance & Traceability Model
Decision governance and traceability protocols that ensure architectural decisions remain defensible through certification cycles, competitive pressure, and operational evolution. Deliverable: Governance framework documentation and decision traceability matrix.
