01
Force protection
Counter-UAS and perimeter watch
Camera, RF, and acoustic detections fuse into one local track picture. Alerts reach operators and TAK in seconds.
Example: Watch on a fence line and a pad. Runs through a communications blackout.
Pilot program
Prove it on a mission your unit already runs.
One site, your operators, your hardware, 30 to 60 days. Success criteria are agreed in writing before the pilot starts and reported against at the end.
Pilot posture
Small, fixed, and measurable.
EdgeLance is early. It has been demonstrated, not fielded. The pilot is built so a unit can find out what it does on real hardware at low cost and low risk.
- Duration
- 30 to 60 days
- Scope
- One site. One mission thread. Your operators.
- Hardware
- Laptops, phones, cameras, and radios the unit already has
- Network
- No cloud account and no reach-back required
- Price
- Fixed price, agreed before the start
- Data
- Stays on unit hardware. The unit keeps it or burns it at the end.
Starting points
Four pilots. Bring your own priority and we will scope it.
02
Edge ISR
Small-drone ISR without reach-back
Drone video is analyzed on a laptop at the site. Detections become map markers and team tasks.
Example: Route reconnaissance processed during a SATCOM outage.
03
C2 continuity
Command post in degraded communications
Chat, map, orders, tasks, and document questions stay available locally. Signed sync catches higher up when a path opens.
Example: A command post works through an outage without falling back to paper and runners.
04
Documentation
Medical and site records offline
Medic notes and site assessments are captured by speech, hands-free, with photos and audio attached.
Example: A medical event documented at a remote site and synced on the next connection window.
How it runs
Scope, install, operate, report.
Week 0
Scope
A working session on your mission thread. We agree on the site, the hardware, the roles, and three to five success criteria in writing.
Weeks 1-2
Install
EdgeLance is delivered as a signed package and installed on unit hardware. Mission pack, map data, and models are loaded for the scenario.
Weeks 2-6
Operate
Your operators run the mission thread, connected and disconnected. We adjust the software to their feedback during the pilot.
Final week
Report
A written result against each success criterion, the mission record, and a recommendation: stop, extend, or scale.
The unit provides
- A site and a mission thread
- Three to ten operators for scheduled sessions
- Existing devices, cameras, radios, or drones
- A point of contact and a security reviewer
EdgeLance provides
- Software, signed and with a software bill of materials
- Installation and scenario setup
- Operator training in under a day
- Engineering support for the full pilot
- The final report and the mission record
Success criteria
Agreed before day one.
Typical measures are below. The unit sets the thresholds. The final report states each result plainly, including the ones that fall short.
- Core workflows continue with every external link cut
- Time from detection to an operator alert
- Time from an approved task to an acknowledged asset
- Data reconciles correctly when nodes reconnect
- Operators complete the thread without vendor help by the final week
How to buy
A small business, registered and ready to contract.
EdgeLance LLC is a U.S. small business registered in SAM.gov. A pilot is priced below the simplified acquisition threshold, so a unit or program office can use the purchase path it already has.
- Direct purchase order or simplified acquisition
- Other Transaction prototype agreement or Commercial Solutions Opening
- SBIR and STTR topics
- Subcontract under a prime or integrator already on contract
Registration codes are on the company page.
Next step
Bring the mission thread. We will scope the pilot.
A one-hour working session. You leave with a written scope, success criteria, and a fixed price.
