Operational Management & Lifecycle Support Services

Our operational management teams focus on planning, organizing and delivering the services according to our customers' requirements. Ranging from fleet-wide management of the Canadian Forces airborne fleet to the development of requirements for next-generation complex defence and security systems, Calian will institute a solution to address your problems, including PMP-qualified project managers, satellite operational support, lifecycle management, fleet-wide management services and specialized custom engineering expertise.

Modelling and Simulation-Enabled Design Services

With the diversity of mission capability and the associated requirement for more advanced technologies, designing modern systems is an especially challenging task. Calian uses modeling and simulation (M&S) to inform critical design choices within the design and validations phases for both new equipment and upgrades to old. With the use of M&S, Calian can understand a system's behaviour without actually testing the system in the real world. We can support experimentation that occurs totally in software (constructive), or in human-in-the-loop (virtual) environments where simulation represents systems or generates data needed to meet experiment objectives. These techniques and technologies significantly shorten the design cycle and reduce the cost of design.

Research & Development Services

Calian is a leading service provider in the provisioning of support to research and development initiatives in the defence, communications and security domains. The associated capability set established to support the initial phases of the systems engineering process—concept development and experimentation, analysis, requirements development—is completely portable to any critical systems environment. Identification of the operational deficiency initiates the process of building/assembling the team and technologies to resolve the gap. Current areas of delivery include, but are not limited to, human/autonomous interaction, next-generation command and control, development of operational concepts for future systems, the evolution of security protocols associated with the protection of personnel, equipment and data, to name a few.

Our success is rooted in our people.
