Reduce Costs, Development Time & DO-254 Certification Risk
DO-254 safety certification for manned and unmanned aerial vehicles can be a costly and time-consuming undertaking, especially if the process is new to your organization. Working with a vendor that can provide safety certifiable COTS solutions that are designed for use in systems with Design Assurance Level A using AMC 20-152A as a means of compliance for safety certification can significantly reduce the program’s cost, and development time, and overall certification risk.
Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions has extensive experience and decades of proven success in airborne systems, providing hardware developed with safety certification artifacts for RTCA DO-254. Our range of solutions covers process-intensive civil and military embedded computing systems , 3U VPX processor cards, 3U VPX graphics cards and flight data recorders. We have the expertise to help save time getting systems certified.
Benefits of Safety-Certifiable COTS
Reduced Cost
COTS value priced safety certifiable hardware available with artifacts to support safety certification with no NRE costs.
Speeds Time to Market
Why pay NRE and wait for development when programs can procure with the same ease and availability as non-safety certifiable off-the-shelf hardware.
Technology Innovation
Benefit from Curtiss-Wright’s ongoing investment and commitment to product research and development. Protect your system and application with solutions aligned with industry specifications.
Managed Risk
Reduce program and schedule risk by engaging a specialist in the technology area. Enjoy the added security of Curtiss-Wright's extensive program management capabilities.
