IS4S is supporting the building of ground systems performing satellite command and control.  

Our team is specifically working on telemetry, tracking and command (TT&C), satellite/constellation management, modeling and simulation, and rendezvous proximity operations & docking. 

Our systems engineering team developed system and software architecture models using a standard government-adopted MBSE tool and an object-oriented approach to complex system design.  

The customer-centric processes our team built are custom and easily adopted, and allow for support engineering teams to implement safety, cybersecurity, and program management detail into the MBSE model.  

We specialize in designing and manufacturing custom shipping containers tailored to meet unique needs in rugged and remote environments.  

Our containers are fully customizable, transforming into portable machine shops equipped to handle various tools and machinery on-site. With a focus on quality, durability, and innovation, these containers are ideal for industries requiring mobile operations and adaptable workspaces. 

Our robotics team expertise includes complete robot hardware and software solutions capable of autonomously loading cargo onto an aircraft, loading themselves (robots) onto the aircraft, unloading at the destination, and carrying the cargo up to a mile away. Our team also develops autonomous refueling robots and single arm manufacturing robots. 

Open systems architectures and modularity are the backbone of our software development efforts.  

We utilize MBSE approaches to maximize interface definition and data definitions to maximize exchange of proper information without proprietary pieces, which allows for easy changing of components and subsystems. Isolation of complex functions via well-defined fire control algorithms also helps avoid inadvertent coupling across interfaces. 

Our mechanical designers use additive manufacturing approaches to validate enclosure designs and to dry-fit many pieces and parts during the design phase in order to minimize changes required during integration. 

We provide advanced decontamination systems designed to meet diverse needs in various environments.

Our product range includes inflatable decontamination units for quick deployment, container-based solutions for more permanent or larger-scale operations, and lightweight backpack options for portable and field-ready use. 

We support numerous hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) and simulation-in-the loop (SIL) labs that help verify and validate software for customers.

Similarly, we use these labs to mitigate risks to the customer by analyzing results against physics-based simulations and models and testing results. 

Our team is proficient across multiple software languages from low-level backend development all the way to user interface development on a variety of platforms.  

We use Kubernetes to rapidly scale software application development and deployment in a cloud-based ecosystem.

Our production facility is AS9100 quality certified, a globally recognized standard in aerospace, defense, and industrial sectors, that ensures stringent controls throughout the manufacturing process.  

By adhering to these rigorous requirements, we are able to reliably design and deliver precision-engineered products such as small and large equipment decontamination systems, body-worn navigation systems, smoke obscuration systems, and cruise missiles. 

IS4S has served as a Weapon Government Reference Architecture (Weapons GRA) consortium member for over two years which includes the Weapon Open Systems Architecture (WOSA) as a primary design authority.  

We have provided recommendations on improving the WOSA, reviewed changes, and provided feedback from our own implementation of the WOSA model on current IS4S programs such as the enterprise test vehicle (ETV) and common munitions software-defined radio (cMSDR).

IS4S has undertaken extensive integration efforts of adapting launchers to work with new or different munitions.  

Our recent work includes, but it is not limited to, the PAC-2, PAC3, PAC-3MSE, AIM-9X, Stinger, AI3, HTMK, Tamir, and Hellfire. 

Our electronics and software design teams work closely with our customers to provide unique combinations of commercial and custom hardware that utilize high-speed field-programmable gate array (FPGA)-driven controls to provide unprecedented safety, speed, and return on investment in challenging environments. 

We have supported complete line replaceable unit (LRU) development, from board and electronics design to the enclosure development, integration, and testing with larger systems.

We have supported many ground-based launch systems with integrated fire control systems over the years, including Multiple Launcher Rocket System (MLRS), Multi-Mission Launcher (MML), PATRIOT system, Palletized Field Artillery Launcher (PFAL), Autonomous Mobile Launcher (AML), and Rogue Fires. 

By integrating the correct blend of highly reliable commercial and specially designed custom equipment, our engineering team provides highly reliable end-to-end secure communications systems that perform in the most challenging environmental and electromagnetic circumstances.
