COLLABOARD FOR AEROSPACE & DEFENCE

Secure visual collaboration for complex programs

Plan programs, run mission workshops, and align distributed engineering teams in one secure workspace. Deployable on-premises and in air-gapped environments.

Flexible deployment: cloud, sovereign cloud, on-premises or air-gapped

Built for complex work: mission planning, systems engineering and program execution

Secure collaboration: across teams, departments and external partners

Keep complex programs aligned from planning to execution

Aerospace and defence programs span organizations, disciplines, locations and security boundaries. Collaboard helps teams align around the big picture, coordinate complex work and carry decisions forward into execution.

Connect teams across boundaries

Give prime contractors, suppliers, and internal teams one place to plan and review together, across sites and time zones.

Make complexity visible

Visualize milestones, dependencies, responsibilities and risks so everyone understands the bigger picture and what needs attention next.

Turn decisions into action

Transform workshops, engineering reviews and planning sessions into clear actions, owners and next steps.

What aerospace and defence teams use Collaboard for

From program management and systems engineering to mission planning and training, Collaboard supports the visual collaboration behind complex aerospace and defence programs.

Plan and coordinate complex programs visually

Plan increments, map dependencies across workstreams, and keep milestones, owners, and risks visible in one place. Give teams a shared view of the program while retaining the flexibility to explore details, decisions and dependencies visually.

The questions your security team will ask first

For aerospace and defence teams, data location, access control and infrastructure security are non-negotiable. Collaboard gives security and IT teams clear control over where collaboration happens, how data is protected and who can access it.

Where is the data stored?

Choose the deployment model that fits your security requirements. From sovereign and government cloud environments to on-premises and fully air-gapped infrastructure. Keep control over where your collaboration data is hosted.

How is the data protected?

Protect collaboration data with encryption, controlled authentication and granular permissions, backed by security measures across the application and infrastructure.

Who gets access?

Integrate Collaboard with your existing identity and authentication environment and manage access centrally, so only authorized users can reach the workspaces and information they need.

Built for sovereign, on-premises, and air-gapped environments

The first requirement in defense is meeting security standards without giving up usability. Collaboard runs from fully air-gapped deployments up to private and government cloud, with the same feature set and ease of use teams expect from commercial software.

On-premises and air-gapped deployment with no dependency on public cloud

Sovereign European and government cloud options for organizations with specific data residency requirements

Consistent capabilities across deployment models so teams can collaborate without sacrificing usability

DEPLOYMENT & INFRASTRUCTURE

Deploy Collaboard in the environment that fits your infrastructure

Kubernetes installation

Deploy Collaboard via Helm on your Kubernetes environment, including Red Hat OpenShift and Rancher-managed clusters. Scale the deployment as usage and program requirements grow.

Virtual appliance

Use a preconfigured virtual appliance for VMware, Proxmox or Hyper-V. Ideal for pilots, dedicated installations and environments where a fast, straightforward deployment is required.

Air-gapped operation

Run Collaboard fully offline inside your network with no dependency on public internet services. Core collaboration capabilities remain available, while functions that require external services are disabled.

Government and regulated cloud environments

Deploy Collaboard in Microsoft Azure, including Azure Government and confidential-computing environments, or in AWS, including AWS GovCloud (US).

Identity and access integration

Integrate Collaboard with your existing identity environment using SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0 and AD FS. Map permissions to directory groups and use LDAP or SCIM for centralized user lifecycle management.

Start focused. Scale securely.

Validate Collaboard with a focused use case in the environment that meets your security requirements, then expand across teams and programs at your own pace.

Define your requirements

Review your use case, IT environment, deployment model and security requirements together with our team.

Run a focused pilot

Start with one team, program or collaboration scenario in the deployment environment that fits your requirements.

Scale across teams and programs

Build on proven workflows, templates and processes and extend Collaboard to additional teams, programs and use cases.

Collaboard for the Defense Industry - Frequently Questions and Answers

Do you have questions? We're here to help.

Yes. Organizations can start with a defined team, department, or use case and evaluate Collaboard within their existing processes and IT environment before expanding the deployment.

Yes. Teams can use Collaboard to visualize architectures, workflows, dependencies, requirements, interfaces, and technical concepts. The flexible canvas makes it particularly useful for collaborative engineering workshops, design reviews, planning sessions, and interdisciplinary alignment.

Collaboard provides a shared visual workspace where teams can map systems, processes, dependencies, requirements, risks, project plans, and decisions. This helps multidisciplinary teams establish a common understanding of complex initiatives and keep important context visible throughout the project.

Collaboard is designed for organizations with demanding security and compliance requirements. With self-hosted deployment options, organizations can operate Collaboard within their own security architecture and apply their existing policies for authentication, access, networking, and data management.

Collaboard integrates with collaboration and productivity platforms including Microsoft Teams, Webex, Pexip, Nextcloud, Rocket.Chat, and Jira. An API supports custom integrations into existing processes, and an MCP Server connects AI tools where permitted.

Yes. Collaboard can be deployed on-premises and in fully air-gapped environments, as well as in private, sovereign European, and government cloud. You choose the model that fits your security and accreditation requirements.
