Robotics & Autonomy — Assured Autonomy

We help programs integrate autonomy with credible safety cases, verifiable behavior, and testable requirements—so teams can field with confidence and comply with policy.

Focus areas

From concept to credible fielding.

Safety cases (MIL‑STD‑882E)

Hazard analyses and risk acceptance evidence—hardware, software, and human factors.

Autonomy verification

Behavioral requirements, scenarios, and performance bounds; data pedigree and configuration control.

Test & evaluation

Right‑sized DT&E/OT&E with measures of effectiveness/suitability and clear authorities.

How we build confidence

Policy‑aware engineering and digital evidence.

Policy alignment

Autonomy in weapons systems policy (DoDD 3000.09) and mission‑appropriate human judgment.

Digital engineering

Digital thread (DoDI 5000.97) and MBSE to keep requirements, design, and test in sync.

Airworthiness (where applicable)

Apply MIL‑HDBK‑516 criteria to UxS air platforms via the Service airworthiness authorities.

VV&A & scenarios

Verification, validation & accreditation of models/sims; scenario libraries, logs, and traceability.

Deliverables
  • Safety program (SSPP), hazard analyses, and risk acceptance docs
  • Autonomy requirements & verification matrix; test scenarios
  • OT/DT strategies with M&S VV&A evidence
  • Digital models, interface specs, and configuration baselines
Aligned to
  • DoDD 3000.09 Autonomy in Weapon Systems
  • MIL‑STD‑882E System Safety (incl. Change 1)
  • DoDI 5000.97 Digital Engineering
  • Service airworthiness criteria (MIL‑HDBK‑516) where applicable
We support compliance and evidence generation. We do not design or broker weapons. All work follows U.S. law and client security requirements.
