In the mid-2000s, BGI expanded beyond traditional support roles for major system integrators by pursuing technical contracts independently. This strategic move led to the inclusion of skilled systems architects, software engineers, and data scientists in our team. We have consistently executed numerous research and development, software development, and data analytics projects, supported by a dedicated BGI-owned facility in Akron, Ohio. Our experienced technical staff and robust cybersecurity infrastructure support defense technology programs in data analytics, human performance assessment, digital engineering, modeling, simulation, autonomy, and software engineering. We excel in leveraging data for discovery and transitioning algorithms into enterprise systems within a DevSecOps environment. Our software engineering emphasizes a broad range of programming languages and host platforms, flexible data structures, and scalable solutions that integrate seamlessly within enterprise frameworks.
Our mission is to integrate operational, technical, and engineering expertise to enhance customer capability and drive positive impact to the Warfighter in aviation, training, and defense programs.
