Aerospace & Defense Overview

Advancements in technology take place in months, while Aerospace & Defense RFPs and projects change and span over years.  To ’bridge the gap’ and remain competitive in this market, device manufacturers and software vendors must ensure the products and services they deliver meet the highest level of safety and security and adhere to well-adopted open standards.  COTS (Commercial Off the Shelf) products reduce acquisition costs by leveraging economies of scale across systems, programs and government branches.  ALT Software is sensitive to the pressures that aerospace and defense companies face to deliver these complex systems with rigid deployment deadlines and tight budgets.  Our net-centric approach and certifiable development methodology for delivering embedded software solutions ensures interoperability between systems, code re-usability, and reduces overall costs. 


Safety and Security


Internationally, DO-178B and Common Criteria EAL 7 are regarded as the most stringent standards and certification criteria in the development of Mil/Aero device software.  ALT offers A&D companies DO-178B 2D/3D OpenGL products that have been certified to Level A and applies the same methodologies as those for avionics in developing embedded software products and services for aerospace and defense companies worldwide.

Open Architecture

Increasingly, defense departments are investing in open standard solutions like those offered by ALT Software. Technologies such as OpenGL, OpenVG and other multimiedia standards are an important part of the Net-centric Warfare vision for the future.  These solutions are not only more cost-effective than proprietary approaches; they offer compatibility, portability and reusability across vendors and applications. ALT is committed to providing software products and services that adhere to industry standards and certification criteria enabling defense contractors to achieve reduced overall costs and improved business cycles
