The Epsilon3 Platform
One digital thread from first build to final mission
Epsilon3 connects procedures, parts, tests, issues, and data in a single record across build, test, operations, and sustainment.
Built for every stage of the hardware lifecycle
Pick a stage to see the capabilities teams use there.

04
Sustain
Keep fielded hardware ready
Jump to Sustain
01 - BUILD
From kit to as-built record
Release digital work instructions to the floor, track every part and serial number in a manufacturing execution system, and catch defects the moment they happen with built-in nonconformance management. Every step, part and sign-off becomes the as-built record.
CORE CAPABILITIES
Procedures & Work Instructions →
Quality Management →
Manufacturing Execution →
Scheduling & Planning →
Also used here: Risk Management - Data & Analytics
Hands off to Test → as-built configuration, open nonconformances, signed procedure records
02 - TEST
From test plan to verified requirement
Plan campaigns, run test procedures step-by-step, and trace every result back to its requirement with hardware test management. Review test and telemetry data alongside the procedure, and keep every shift in sync with electronic shift logs.

Hands off to Operate → verified requirements, test data, flight-ready configuration
03 - OPERATE
Launches, missions and live operations
Run operations from procedures the whole team follows in real time. Log anomalies the moment they appear with anomaly resolution workflows, hand over cleanly with shift handover records, and review telemetry analysis in context.

Hands off to Sustain → operational history, anomaly records, configuration changes
04 - SUSTAIN
Keep fielded hardware ready
Plan and record work with maintenance and MRO tracking, pull the full part history straight from the as-built record, and close the loop with CAPA that feeds fixes back into design and production.

One platform underneath
Every stage runs on the same foundation, so data never has to be re-keyed from one tool to the next.
A single record
Procedures, parts, tests, issues and data share one source of truth across the lifecycle.

Frequently asked questions
What is a digital thread?
A digital thread connects the data a product generates across its lifecycle, from build through test, operations and maintenance, so every stage can trace back to the others.
How is Epsilon3 different from a PLM?
PLM manages design data. Epsilon3 runs the work that follows (building, testing, operating and maintaining hardware) and syncs with your PLM.
Can Epsilon3 replace our MES and QMS?
PLM manages design data. Epsilon3 runs the work that follows (building, testing, operating and maintaining hardware) and syncs with your PLM.
What deployment options are available?
PLM manages design data. Epsilon3 runs the work that follows (building, testing, operating and maintaining hardware) and syncs with your PLM.
