E/E Systems Development for Aerospace & Defense

Our E/E systems development solutions provide a model-based approach, employing digital data continuity, spanning the full electrical value chain.

The challenges of electrical system design and integration demand that aerospace and defense OEMs and their suppliers employ a digitally integrated, scalable, and margin sensitive approach in order to reduce program and business risk. We provide a model-based enterprise (MBE) solution, employing digital data continuity and spanning the full electrical systems value chain: from the definition of a platform's electrical system, through its design, certification and manufacturing, and beyond to support its full utilization life cycle.
