Section 04 // Programs of Record

Fielded programs, named customers, logged outcomes — a working record, not a showcase.

The following pages are program briefs in the procurement-document register. Each panel carries a metadata strip — program, period, value, classification, outcome — followed by an editorial caption written for the engineering and contracting staff who will live with the system.

Four named programs. 14M+ operational hours. Zero mission-aborting faults.

Each panel reads as a procurement-document brief: a metadata strip across the top, then an editorial caption written for the program manager who will inherit the system. Specifics are limited to publicly releasable scope.

U.S. Navy Unmanned Surface Vessel Family

Awarded as a sole-source IDIQ by the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command in March 2023, this program delivers the autonomy and mission-management stack across the Navy’s USV family of record. Integration time on adopter platforms has averaged a 67% reduction against the program’s prior baseline.

Class I Rail — Positive Train Control Overlay

A SCADA-hardened PTC overlay for a Class I freight operator, delivering real-time enforcement on legacy signaling without service interruption. Edge nodes have maintained 99.9994% runtime availability over the trailing 36 months across more than 9,300 deployments.

Port Automation — CONUS Terminal 11

Autonomous crane-side orchestration and yard-truck routing at a CONUS container terminal. The stack absorbs legacy TOS APIs, enforces safety envelopes on the edge, and reports deterministic state to operations. No mission-aborting faults since commissioning.

TECHNICAL BRIEF § 03 / PROGRAM OUTCOMES
FIGURES VERIFIED THROUGH Q4 2024

Four numbers from the program record.

Outcome metrics, reported the way a program office would — aggregated, time-stamped, and traceable to a deployed system, not a marketing slide.

  1. 14M+ Operational hours logged without a mission-aborting fault.
  2. 99.9994% Runtime availability across 9,300+ deployed edge nodes over 36 months.
  3. 1,180+ Fielded platforms running the Athena Autonomy SDK across 19 allied nations.
  4. 12 Sole-source awards on programs of record since 2021.
PROGRAM MANAGER — DEBRIEF

A note from the desk.

"Fourteen million hours without a mission-aborting fault is not a marketing number for us. Inside a program office it is the difference between a platform that survives the test plan and a program that survives a budget cycle. Our job is to make sure nobody on the bridge ever has to think about the software — and the ledger says we have."
