Tnasportability Engineering ImagesAt the very foundation of force deployability is equipment transportability. Transportability Engineers work closely with requirements writers and equipment developers, including defense contractors, program managers and other government organizations, throughout the acquisition life cycle, to influence the design of systems in favor of efficient transportability.

We evaluate every aspect of an item's transportability characteristics, including: weight, dimensions, lifting and tiedown provisions, interface with required transportation assets and infrastructure, and structural integrity. We accomplish this mission by employing advanced virtual simulations and through participation in live testing. Our efforts ensure that equipment design facilitates rapid force deployment.
