The Cornerstone Defense Space/DoD Sector spans diverse mission areas among the prestigious service branches of our nations Department of Defense. Our core capabilities are focused around cloud implementation and support, software development and engineering, exploitation of space operational data, system and network engineering, space operations command and control, and logistical support.
Cornerstone Defense is focused on providing core mission services and solutions with a strong value proposition. In support of all branches of the military and service support elements, we ensure our team continuously provides innovation, and continuity of operations to our men and women of the Armed Forces. The overarching organizations and agencies that we support include the United States Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, U.S. Space Force, and other classified agencies. Each DoD Key Area Includes: Domain Expertise, Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), application of beneficial relevant technologies, delivery of proven patterns, and mission results.
Our SE&I Team provides solutions and support to ensure timely implementation. With a heavy focus on multiple full lifecycle support disciplines, our systems engineers and integrators are immersed in relevant certifications, ensuring the implementation of system requirements and data is delivered on time, every time, to our customers’ specifications.
Our team of developers function in multifaceted environments ensuring customers in the aerospace and defense areas of the U.S. Government and integrator community receive differentiated applications and services in support of their dynamic mission requirements.
Our Team of Scrum Masters and Agile coaches are committed to enforcing the methodologies of this practice. The commitment to an agile approach must be absorbed in the software development process. Our team collaborates with our customers and development teams to instill the philosophies of the methodology, ultimately creating an Agile center of excellence.
Our Team of highly skilled cloud engineers are trained in the development and implementation of multiple cloud technologies. We focus on the best solution, based on mission driven requirements, to ensure our customers and the warfighter are receiving the information required to make informed decisions in a global environment.
Our team has deep domain expertise in both traditional and software defined networks. Cornerstone has performed in all stages of network engineering from requirements gathering through implementation, operations, and maintenance. Our team was integral on a global re-design of the largest encrypted network in the intelligence community. The architecture design allowed for cloud optimized performance and secure communication across a multi-disciplined global enterprise.
Our cadre of information systems security officers, managers, and engineers are working to build, improve, create, and document processes and procedures for a multitude of space-based systems. By utilizing cybersecurity technology and skills, RMF compliance, configuration management, and software development, our team continues to directly contribute to successful ATOs.
Our ground operations individuals are routinely tasked with properly configuring orbital and ground resources for communication, thus allowing monitoring of state of health and planning systems. These engineers interact with factory and military personnel regularly, providing ground system configuration, ground, and spacecraft troubleshooting, creating procedures, ensuring the successful operations of spacecraft and ground systems.
Our team of highly trained real-time operators support multiple classified and unclassified missions both pre and post launch. We have focused, driven, and mission essential personnel that provide communications and contact support, anomaly reporting and resolution, creating procedures, pre and post pass planning, and overall monitoring of spacecraft status/functionality, in support of our DoD customers, ensuring mission success.
The Cornerstone Defense Team supports numerous customers in the identification, ingest, and analysis of mission critical data. This analysis includes trending, anomaly detection, change/effect evaluation, and improved operations. Analysis includes research on failures, continuity of operation, improved cost of operation, and specifics such as orbital debris, parts defects, improved component storage, and delivery.
Our Space Team provides operation development and execution support for systems, sensors, and operational requirements, maintaining on-orbit testing of satellites. Cornerstone Defense is a critical partner with expertise supporting IRAD production, development, and testing in simulation for mission critical response. Our Space Team participates in on-orbit checked out and test, orbit and attitude determination/confirmation, and planned on-orbit upgrades.
