3 years 9 months ago → Technology Partnerships
MONTRÉAL – October 10, 2006 – Engenuity Technologies Inc. (TSX: EGY), a leading provider of solutions for the development of high-end visualization and simulation applications, today announced that it has formed a strategic alliance with the world's largest provider of DO-178B training and engineering services in the aviation industry – HighRely Inc. Together both companies will offer an integrated suite of safety critical HMI (Human Machine Interface) development tools along with the training and services necessary for developing safety-critical avionics. This partnership will take effect in October 2006, and will consist initially of customer referrals and joint marketing initiatives with future plans of integrated product and training bundles.
“Engenuity's VAPS Qualifiable Code Generator (QCG) product is the market leader for the development of DO-178B qualifiable avionics, and we are thrilled by the opportunity to provide expert DO-178B services to their extensive user base,” said Mike Smith, Business Development Manager for HighRely. “With the increasing demand for DO-178B certification knowledge and support, it is imperative that avionics developers are using the right tools for the job and receiving the proper training and project start-up that will allow them to develop and certify their systems in the most practical, time-efficient and reliable manner.”
HighRely Inc. provides avionics project start-up services for companies looking to jump-start their DO-178B programs, or increase the efficiency and expertise within an existing avionics development project. HighRely provides training, DO-178B gap analysis, DO-178B checklists, DO-178B DER services, and DO-178B application development and verification. HighRely's DO-178B trainers have trained more people in DO-178B than the total of all other trainers combined. Through the use of real world examples, one-on-one coaching, and onsite, project specific training, High Rely is the premier choice for many of the world's most prestigious aviation systems and sub-contractors.
“Partnering with HighRely, the leader in DO-178B services, is a natural fit for our company and our products,” states Robert Kopersiewich, Director of Product Management for VAPS and VAPS QCG. “By providing our user base with the training and know-how to quickly and reliably certify their avionics systems, and by gaining access to HighRely's impressive client roster we see strong synergies both in customer service and expanding our safety critical business.”
Engenuity's VAPS QCG (Qualifiable Code Generator) product is a qualifiable graphics development and automatic code generation tool that complies with DO-178B Level A certification standards. DO-178B provides guidelines for the production of safety-critical airborne systems software. Since VAPS QCG is coupled with the VAPS graphical design environment, this tool enables graphics software generated from a VAPS application to be qualified with minimal effort. By reducing the effort required within the software design, coding, and testing phases, VAPS QCG dramatically shortens the time required for developing certifiable embedded software products.
