Government & Defense
Built for government and defense.
QuantumWorks develops AI-native solutions for environments where security, evidence, operational constraints, and human oversight cannot be afterthoughts.
Mission environments
- Secure systems
- Disconnected operations
- Evidence requirements
- Human supervision
- Legacy infrastructure
- Autonomous operations
Our systems are designed for the places commercial tooling gives up: restricted, disconnected, hybrid, and high-assurance environments, and platforms that cannot simply ship telemetry to a cloud service.
Evidence-grounded design is a constraint we impose on our own AI. When a QuantumWorks system reaches a conclusion about risk, a control, or a mission, that conclusion is bound to evidence a human can audit. Explainability is not a feature request in these environments. It is a precondition for use.
Our work often begins with difficult government mission requirements and develops into technologies with much broader applications.
How We Work
From hard requirement to working system.
- Applied R&D
- Research directed toward concrete technical and operational requirements.
- Rapid system development
- Working systems that prove the core technical claim early.
- SBIR/STTR
- Developing technology through federal small-business R&D programs.
- Technical partnerships
- Collaboration with research institutions and industry teams.
- Transition-focused engineering
- Built from the start to survive accreditation, operations, and handoff.
For Government Teams
Mandates, programs, and what they require.
-
Legacy Modernization
Federal Legacy IT Modernization With AI: Evidence for the ATOFederal legacy IT modernization with AI must produce evidence assessors can review, keep humans in approval, and run in disconnected, classified environments.
-
Post-Quantum Cryptography
Federal PQC Mandates: EO 14412, OMB M-26-15, and CNSA 2.0What EO 14412 and OMB M-26-15 require, how they fit with CNSA 2.0 and M-23-02, federal PQC migration deadlines, and what agencies and contractors should do now.
-
Robotics & Autonomy
Runtime Assurance for Autonomous Systems: Beyond Vehicle HealthRuntime assurance for autonomous systems means checking each course of action against mission contracts, with auditable evidence for DoD test and evaluation.
Doing Business
Small business. Deep technology.
QuantumWorks is a U.S.-based Women-Owned Small Business developing proprietary technology through federal R&D programs and direct engineering work.
Questions
Common questions.
- What does QuantumWorks do?
- QuantumWorks builds AI-native solutions for government and defense across cybersecurity and cryptography, software intelligence, and autonomous systems.
- Is QuantumWorks a small business?
- Yes. QuantumWorks is a U.S.-based Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB).
- How does QuantumWorks work with government?
- Through applied R&D, rapid system development, federal SBIR/STTR programs, and technical partnerships.
- Does QuantumWorks support post-quantum cryptography migration?
- Yes. Sentinel discovers quantum-vulnerable cryptography, maps dependencies, and plans migration against federal PQC mandates.
