Configurations diverge over time
Effectivity, retrofits and customer-specific variants make it hard to know the as-designed, as-built and as-maintained state of each unit.
Configuration control that holds for decades.
Aircraft and defence systems stay in service for decades and are modified throughout. Every change has to be traceable to its requirement, its analysis and the configuration it applies to.

- Windchill
- Polarion

Where the thread usually breaks
Certification evidence takes too long to assemble
Evidence for frameworks such as DO-178C and AS9100 is gathered late from documents rather than produced as work progresses.
Legacy data is hard to trust
Older programmes hold product data in systems and formats that need careful migration before they can be relied on.
What we focus on
- Effectivity and configuration management in PLM
- Requirements, verification and change records linked for audit
- Validated migration of legacy product data
- Controlled handover of engineering changes to operations
