Software for the defense industry
Decades in use. Decades of traceability.

Defense contracts are not evaluated based on unit volume, but rather on reliability, traceability, and complete documentation. weasl digitizes manufacturing and testing processes for complex defense systems—in compliance with AQAP, traceable over decades, and ready for any acceptance inspection by external agencies.

Leading companies rely on weasl

What challenges the defense industry today

Defense systems have lifecycles of up to 50 years. Every screw, test, and deviation must be traceable throughout the entire period. No other industry places higher demands on the level of documentation, traceability, and process control.

Official inspections and approvals

External inspection agencies review manufacturing processes, test records, and quality management systems in great detail. Missing or unverifiable records result in approval delays and contractual penalties.

Configuration management over decades

Defense systems are maintained, upgraded, and modified over the course of decades. Every change must be documented with precise configuration details. Which component revision was installed at the time of delivery? What was retrofitted in the field?

High complexity for batch size 1

Armored vehicles, communications equipment, weapons systems: Military equipment is often produced as one-of-a-kind items or in very small batches. Each system has a unique configuration, which must nevertheless be fully and accurately documented.

AQAP and AS9100D audit requirements

AQAP 2110 and AS9100D require a quality management system that has been demonstrated to be effectively implemented, with documented processes, inspection steps, nonconformance management, and FRACAS.

First-article inspection

First Article Inspection (FAI) in accordance with AS9102 or similar standards is one of the most time-consuming acceptance processes. Every dimensional deviation and material substitution must be fully documented and evaluated for hundreds of characteristics.

Security requirements and IT compliance

Classified information, strict IT security requirements: Digital manufacturing systems in the defense industry must be capable of operating on-premises and provide role-based access controls with logging of all access events.

Every configuration. Every revision. Traceable at any time.

Complex defense systems require seamless configuration management. weasl manages instructions in an audit-proof manner, with defined approvals and full traceability in accordance with AQAP 2110 and AS9100D.

Audit-compliant version control for all work instructions, with a complete change history

Documented configuration status by serial number

Approval workflow with the dual-review principle, digital signatures, and timestamps

Direct integration with ERP and PLM systems for the automatic import of bill of materials and engineering change data

Version Control and Approval of Drawings in the Defense Industry

A qualified employee performs a critical step

Critical processes are always in the right hands.

Welding according to MIL-STD? Leak tests? These tasks must be performed exclusively by qualified personnel. weasl links roles to process approvals, attaches timestamps to documentation, and provides meaningful data at any time.

Blocking Critical Steps for Unauthorized Personnel

Digital signatures with timestamps for security-critical manufacturing steps

Importing Qualifications and Roles from an Existing IDM

Training records based on daily work

Ready for acceptance. No piles of paperwork.

First-article inspection in accordance with AS9102 and regulatory approvals require complete inspection records. weasl digitizes the inspection process, automatically records measurement values, and generates audit-ready inspection reports without the need for manual data entry.

Automatic and tamper-proof transfer of measurement data from test equipment

Systematically carry out FAI inspection plans and document them in full

Generate and escalate nonconformance reports directly within the inspection step

Export test reports in a customizable format

Complete documentation of all work steps

Installed 30 years ago, accessible in seconds

Even decades later, it must be possible to trace who installed and tested which components from which batch. weasl automatically records all data and links it to the respective system configuration—throughout the entire service life.

Complete serial number and lot tracking for all installed components in each system

Linking test certificates, calibration records, and material certificates to the production order

Configuration status as of the delivery date is permanently archived and retrievable

Field modifications are stored in the system as separate, traceable tasks

Everything the defense industry needs

weasl brings together all the tools needed for documented defense manufacturing that is ready for acceptance—from FAI to lifecycle documentation.

Drag-and-drop editor

Create work instructions with images, videos, CAD files, and PDFs easily and without any IT knowledge.

Adaptive processes

Depending on the task, weasl automatically displays the exact work instructions needed.

Input
validation

Required fields, threshold values, and validity checks prevent incorrect entries from passing through the process.

Digital signatures

Tamper-proof, time-stamped signatures for security-critical steps.

Tool
integration

You can connect torque wrenches, scanners, scales, and test towers directly via OPC UA or MQTT.

Automatic documentation

Comprehensive recording of all work steps and output as a customizable log.

Traceability

Direct entry of components, lots, and serial numbers into the system.

On-premises

Fully on-premises operation is possible, as well as a role-based authorization system.

Here's what our customers say about weasl

"With weasl, we keep our sources of error and problems relatively low, and that's definitely a game-changer for process reliability, quality, and productivity."
