At Indigo Industries, we recognize the critical importance of thorough testing and evaluation (T&E) in delivering effective, reliable, and innovative solutions to the modern warfighter. Our Test and Evaluation services are designed to rigorously assess the performance, durability, and usability of defense technologies under realistic operational conditions.

Our T&E Approach

Integrated Testing Framework:

We employ a comprehensive T&E strategy that integrates both traditional and non-traditional methods, tailored to meet the specific requirements of each technology and its intended operational environment. This dual approach ensures that all systems are not only effective but also compliant with the latest standards and regulations set by the Office of the Secretary of Defense/Research & Engineering (OSD/R&E).

Real-World Operational Scenarios:

  • Our testing protocols are designed to simulate actual combat and operational scenarios, ensuring that all equipment and systems perform under the stresses and unpredictability of real-world conditions. This includes environmental, durability, and live operational testing.

Rapid Prototyping Feedback Loop:

  • A key component of our T&E process is the rapid prototyping feedback loop, which allows for quick iterations based on real-time data gathered during testing phases. This approach significantly reduces development time and enhances the functionality and performance of the final product.

Advanced Analytics and Simulation:

  • Utilizing state-of-the-art analytics and simulation tools, such as MATLAB, Simulink, ANSYS, and STK, we predict outcomes and troubleshoot potential issues before they arise in physical testing, thereby optimizing the development process and ensuring higher standards of quality and reliability.

Our Services Include:

  • Developmental Testing (DT): Early detection and correction of potential failures through controlled test environments.

  • Operational Testing (OT): Assessment of operational effectiveness and suitability with end-users participating under realistic operational conditions.

  • Joint Testing (JT): Evaluation conducted in cooperation with multiple defense entities to ensure interoperability and cohesiveness across platforms and systems.

  • Live Fire Testing (LFT): Validation of system vulnerability and survivability under live combat conditions to ensure it meets safety and effectiveness criteria.

Compliance and Documentation

We adhere strictly to all Department of Defense (DoD) guidelines for testing and evaluation. Our documentation process is meticulous, providing clear, comprehensive data and analysis to support the deployment and operational use of the technology. All results and findings are thoroughly documented in compliance with OSD/RE standards, ensuring that all stakeholders are well-informed of the system’s performance and capabilities.
