Deliver Defence Innovation with Precision and Discipline

In the defence sector, failure is not an option. Programs are large-scale, high-risk, and governed by rigorous standards like MIL-STD-498, NIST, and ISO/IEC 15288. Ensuring traceability, accountability, and compliance across every phase of the system lifecycle is critical - and increasingly difficult as projects become more interconnected and software-driven.


IBM® Engineering Lifecycle Management (ELM) provides a unified platform for managing complex, multi-domain defence systems from concept to deployment and sustainment. Whether you're developing next-generation platforms, mission systems, or secure communications, ELM brings clarity, control, and confidence to your engineering process.


In a world where certainty is rare and complexity is growing, IBM® ELM helps defence organisations deliver secure, high-integrity systems - on time and to specification.
