Services

Focused systems engineering & field support

Bellafect provides targeted services around RF systems, defense communications, and complex integrations. Each engagement is scoped to deliver concrete, auditable outcomes that strengthen your program.

System Integration & Field Validation

End-to-end support for bringing complex RF and communications systems together on real platforms and networks.

Bellafect works alongside your engineering and field teams to integrate radios, sensors, compute, and networking into a single coherent system. The goal: fewer surprises in the field and clear traceability between lab tests and mission performance.

We emphasize reproducible test setups, disciplined configuration management, and unambiguous reporting so issues can be replicated, diagnosed, and closed.

Example deliverables

  • • Integration plans and test sequences
  • • Platform and network configuration baselines
  • • Field validation reports with reproducible steps
  • • Issue logs and triage summaries
  • • Post-event technical after-action reviews

Ideal clients

Defense primes, integrators, and government programs integrating new RF or communications capabilities onto platforms, tactical networks, or test ranges.

RF Engineering Support

Practical RF systems engineering with an emphasis on integration, maintainability, and field performance.

Bellafect supports RF design decisions with a view toward deployment realities: antenna placement, cabling, interference, environmental constraints, and maintainability in the field.

Rather than theoretical perfection, the focus is on robust performance and clear documentation that other teams can execute against.

Example deliverables

  • • RF block diagrams and interface definitions
  • • Link budget sanity checks and trade notes
  • • Antenna and cabling layout recommendations
  • • Test plans for RF performance and regression
  • • Maintenance and troubleshooting procedures

Ideal clients

RF and systems teams that need additional hands-on support for integration, test, or design reviews, especially when multiple vendors and platforms are involved.

Defense Communications Support

Support for tactical communications systems across configuration, testing, and field use.

From waveform configuration to network planning and on-site troubleshooting, Bellafect helps defense communications systems behave predictably under real operational constraints.

The work is grounded in hands-on experience with tactical radios, networking equipment, and the workflows that operators and maintainers actually use.

Example deliverables

  • • Radio and network configuration guides
  • • Communications test plans and execution
  • • Coverage & connectivity assessments
  • • Tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP)-aligned SOPs
  • • On-site support during exercises or demos

Ideal clients

Programs deploying or modernizing tactical communications systems, especially where multiple waveform families, networks, or vendors must interoperate.

Prototype & Technical Demonstrations

Design, build, and execute prototypes and demos that reveal real technical truth to stakeholders.

Bellafect turns early concepts into disciplined prototypes and demonstrations that can withstand technical questioning from engineers and decision-makers alike.

The emphasis is on clarity: what the demonstration proves, where the risk still sits, and what data is needed to move forward.

Example deliverables

  • • Prototype architectures and wiring diagrams
  • • Lab or range demo environments
  • • Scripted demo flows and talking points
  • • Data capture plans and instrumentation
  • • After-action reports with findings and next steps

Ideal clients

Teams preparing for executive demos, customer evaluations, or internal design reviews where RF or communications systems must be clearly explained and defended.

Engineering Lifecycle Support (PDR/CDR)

Structured support for design reviews, requirements, and technical baselines.

Bellafect helps teams prepare for and execute PDR, CDR, and similar design milestones with clear, traceable technical artifacts — not slide decks built at the last minute.

The focus is on tying together requirements, interfaces, BOMs, and test plans so each review reflects the actual state of the system.

Example deliverables

  • • Requirements and interface refinement
  • • System block diagrams and traceability views
  • • BOMs and wiring/cabling documentation
  • • Review packages and support charts
  • • Risk registers and mitigation proposals

Ideal clients

Programs approaching formal reviews, especially where RF, communications, or integration complexity needs to be presented in a clear, defensible way.

Technical Documentation & Training

Clear, operator-focused documentation and training materials grounded in how the system is actually used.

Documentation and training are often the last items on the schedule, but they determine how the system will really behave in the field. Bellafect develops material from the perspective of the operator, maintainer, and instructor.

The output is practical: procedures, checklists, and explanations that can be used under time pressure, not just archived in a shared drive.

Example deliverables

  • • System overviews and configuration guides
  • • Operator and maintainer SOPs
  • • Troubleshooting trees and quick-reference cards
  • • Training slide decks and instructor notes
  • • Recordings and artifacts from training events

Ideal clients

Defense programs handing systems to operational units, or vendors needing high-quality training and documentation for demanding customers.
