Defense & Aerospace – Our three pillars: Business, Engineering, Digital
We are the national champion — owner-managed, independent of capital markets, and shaped by military experience.
Business:
We provide holistic consulting on aligning organizations, processes, and technologies to enhance Germany’s defense capability.

Our military background and mindset ensure that strategy delivers measurable operational readiness.

We deliver the digital infrastructure for the defense of tomorrow: classified-compliant cloud and DevOps platforms, software-defined defense solutions, AI-based decision support, and highly secure system architectures. Security by design, zero trust, cyber resilience, and architectural sovereignty are integral components of all our services.
