Nominal Secures U.S. Air Force SBIR Phase 2 Contract for Hypersonics

Nominal, a leading defense technology startup specializing in advanced software analytics solutions for hardware development, announced it has been selected by AFWERX for a SBIR Phase 2 in collaboration with the Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC), a U.S. Air Force testing facility located at Arnold Air Force Base. The partnership will empower AEDC to leverage Nominal’s powerful software capabilities to optimize their work processes.

The collaboration between Nominal and AEDC marks a significant milestone in the application of defense technology innovations to testing and evaluation. By integrating Nominal’s state-of-the-art analytics platform, AEDC will benefit from improved data exploitation capabilities, allowing for more efficient and accurate testing and validation of critical aerospace systems.

“We are thrilled to partner with AEDC and support their mission leading ground test for the DoD,” said Cameron McCord, CEO and co-founder of Nominal. “Our software is designed to streamline complex data analysis processes, providing the AEDC team with the tools they need to accelerate development cycles and ensure the highest levels of performance and accuracy.”

AEDC is a critical national resource that contributes to the development of and evaluation of systems for some of the nation’s most needed aerospace programs. Integrating Nominal‘s analytics software will enhance AEDC’s ability to conduct rigorous tests and obtain actionable insights, ultimately contributing to advancing cutting-edge air- and space-borne technologies. This partnership is in line with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and AFWERX’s goals to streamline the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) processes and improve the experience for small businesses.

Nathan Diller, a champion of defense innovation and former Air Force leader, Congressional staffer, and test pilot, commented: “Complex system-of-system defense technologies are going to require new, innovative approaches to data collection and analysis. Nominal is leading the way in meeting that challenge by advancing innovative testing and evaluation capability to accelerate development at a critical moment.”
