Novavia Solutions

Novavia Solutions offers its expertise in information systems design to support innovation teams that develop technology solutions to physical world operations, covering sectors such as manufacturing, transportation, utilities, mining, or agriculture. Our clients may be startup enterprises, academic research teams or skunk works projects within larger organizations, aiming to improve safety, efficiency, and environmental stewardship by leveraging IoT, digital twins, machine learning, AI, and robotics.

Deploying these innovations requires an information system backend that adapts through every stage of the lifecycle, from R&D, field tests, early commercialization and scale-up, with myriad functions to perform -data storage, analytics, ML & AI operations, user interfaces, third-party integrations, maybe even simulations, not to mention the need to monitor and maintain the system itself... Building up all this digital infrastructure is essential, yet may distract engineers from working on the core innovation they are bringing to life. Having faced this dilemma in many settings, our team assists and supplements its customers with a tailored portfolio of services:

Systems design and delivery

Novavia Solutions works with its customers to strategically design and deliver durable software solutions that boost the productivity and effectiveness of their engineering crews. Such engagements may vary in depth and scope, from assisting a founding team with their initial architecture to removing bottlenecks in an already mature stack. Specific areas of expertise include:

• Cloud-native and serverless software architecture for physical operations use cases

• Design, implementation and deployment of data storage, processing, business intelligence or ML/AI infrastructure components

• Integration of third-party or legacy systems to unlock innovation

Team development

Novavia Solutions works with both systems and processes to help teams reach their full potential. This could mean bringing best practices to a relatively inexperienced organization, or revamping knowledge management to facilitate the next stage of growth. In the context of physical operations technology use cases, these services could include:

• Workflows and procedures to improve DevOps, MLOps, security, or data governance

• Fractional leadership and/or change management assistance

• Training, technical assistance, staffing and other supporting activities

Stakeholder success

Innovative technology for physical operations must often accomplish a huge leap from the lab or garage to an unforgiving day-to-day environment. Novavia Solutions helps its customers on that journey by collecting operational insights, formulating a realistic theory of change, and adapting emerging technologies to their intended applications. Leveraging decades of experience in the transportation and manufacturing industries, Novavia Solutions notably offers:

• Strategic product development: concepts of operations, requirements gathering, rapid prototyping...

• Scouting new markets: customer discovery, competitive and regulatory assessments, use cases development…

• Pilot deployment assistance, from design to project management, audits, and post-mortems

Novavia Solutions is founded on a bedrock of excellence, originality, and purpose. With hard skills in software engineering, data engineering, data science and machine learning, and broad expertise in connecting technological innovation with end users, Novavia Solutions is uniquely positioned to assist innovation teams on the road to successful and scalable operational deployments.
