Defence & military experimentation

Experimentation is vital for defence and military organizations to discover, test hypotheses and validate concepts, methods, tactics, systems and technologies.

In practice, this can create challenges that must be managed to achieve credible and valid experimentation outcomes.

Whether conducted as stand-alone activities with tailored venues or integrated into training exercises under operationally realistic conditions, experimentation requires clearly defined aims and objectives supported by a structured data collection and analysis plan designed to evaluate results.

Additional challenges include coordinating execution across multiple stakeholders and maintaining traceable documentation and data for continues analysis, future research and new experimentation activities.

These factors place high demands on how experimentation is planned, executed and digitally supported.

DevCap — a digital solution for experimentation

DevCap is designed for multiple roles involved in experimentation activities, including concept developers, experiment leads, analysts and personnel in operational units. The solution provides structured digital support across the experimentation lifecycle and beyond, enabling activities from stand-alone experiments to field trials conducted during training exercises.

Single point of truth — Consolidate experiment planning into structured, version-controlled formats. Maintain and coordinate inputs from a single point of truth across teams, supporting organizations and stakeholders.

Coordination & data collection — Operate across PC, Android and iOS and collect quantitative and qualitative data, including observations, in real time to support traceability and synchronization during execution.

Analysis & validation — Enable structured analysis by linking data and observations to objectives and experimentation metrics, supporting evidence-based analysis, investigation of cause-effect relationships, and validation of results.

Integration & interoperability — Connect with other platforms and data sources to reduce fragmentation and create a unified pipeline for managing experimentation activities and data before, during and after execution.

Aggregate for continuous development — Aggregate structured and unstructured experimentation data to support follow-on analysis, future experimentation activities and continuous development.
