CREDO partners with U.S. military organizations to support the development of advanced, mission-driven solutions across a wide range of operational environments. As an industrial design and engineering firm, we operate at the intersection of concept exploration, technical rigor, and real-world application—translating complex requirements into scalable, manufacturable systems. Our work emphasizes performance, reliability, and adaptability, informed by a deep understanding of user needs, system constraints, and evolving mission objectives.
Our defense-focused efforts span early-stage research, rapid prototyping, and production-ready design, with an emphasis on cross-disciplinary collaboration and iterative development. We are experienced in navigating sensitive requirements, accelerated timelines, and high-consequence use cases, while maintaining strict standards for quality, documentation, and compliance. Through a flexible, capability-driven approach, CREDO supports a broad spectrum of initiatives—delivering thoughtful, engineered solutions designed to meet the demands of modern defense applications.
CREDO’s industrial design practice focuses on translating operational needs into intuitive, purpose-built solutions that perform in demanding environments. Our approach balances form, function, and human-centered considerations, ensuring that products are not only technically sound but also usable, durable, and aligned with real-world workflows. Through research-driven design, rapid visualization, and iterative refinement, we explore concepts that enhance usability, survivability, and system integration across a range of mission contexts.
Our electrical engineering capabilities support the development of robust, reliable systems designed to operate within complex and constrained environments. CREDO works across power management, sensing, and system-level integration to enable scalable electronic architectures that meet performance and reliability expectations. By emphasizing modularity, efficiency, and interoperability, we help ensure electronic subsystems are aligned with broader platform requirements and evolving operational needs.
CREDO’s mechanical engineering efforts are centered on designing structurally sound, manufacturable solutions capable of withstanding demanding use cases. We address challenges related to strength, thermal performance, packaging, and environmental exposure through careful analysis and iterative validation. Our engineers collaborate closely with design and electrical teams to develop integrated systems that balance performance, durability, and production feasibility.
Our software and firmware development work supports embedded systems and digital interfaces that enable intelligent, responsive behavior at the system level. CREDO approaches development with a focus on reliability, maintainability, and integration—ensuring software complements the hardware it supports. Through disciplined development practices and iterative testing, we deliver solutions that align with system objectives while remaining adaptable to evolving requirements and future capabilities.
