"Ground breaking innovations solving challenging problems"
Military software and electronics development requires a mix of experience, intelligence and a highly disciplined development process. The operational environments of these applications are often extremely severe, requiring solutions with very specific architectures and extensive testing to ensure faultless operation. Tactiq are experienced working to defence standards under the DEF STAN and MIL STD bodies and applicable ISO standards such as ISO 12207 to develop high quality, reliable systems.
Demanding Applications

Tactiq's highly skilled engineers have the experience and expertise in embedded software and electronics which enable us to quickly design a top level architecture concept. The choice of architecture and programming strategy for defence systems is often vital as the applications can remain in the field for many years and need to be monitored, upgraded and traced at various intervals as the technology and requirements shift. We produce an early concept which enables us to perform modelling and simulation to identify potential issues early and give confidence in both architecture and performance. We then take the product through the development process working closely with the clients' team to ensure the deliverables are met for each of the typical defence gateway stages through to production support.
Risk identification and management in developing military software and military electronics is extremely important. Early identification of project risks, their impact and corresponding prevention and mitigation strategies, is key to ensuring these risks are retired early and deliverables are met.
Tactiq project managers and engineers have planned and executed projects with client teams around the world including the USA, Israel, Asia, Scandinavia and mainland Europe. We have a flexible approach to projects which means we can integrate fully with a client's project team or drive the project more remotely. Whichever way the defence client wishes to structure a project, we always ensure it is a total team approach with close, trusting communications and regular face to face meetings at key project phases.
An ISO 13485 company, Tactiq have developed safety systems to IEC 61508 and follow very robust quality systems suitable for the development of military systems, software and electronics. From initial proposals, through design, certification and in-field support, Tactiq have proven quality disciplines that ensure the highest standards are kept throughout.
Tactiq has a proven track record in this field, some example projects are shown below:
