Our Mission
InnoVet is focused on providing the most sophisticated digital engineering solutions. By joining open-source collaborative MBSE software with an iterative facilitated process, InnoVet can accelerate projects, reduce costs, and improve project outcomes. InnoVet's models are built with custom analytics providing a digital engineering automation layer enabling reference architecture validation, digital thread auditing, and Authoritative Sources of Truth (ASoT) traceability. InnoVet’s software is fielded on government-compliant CUI cloud so that data remains accessible and secure with traceable audit logs with a backend rest API for integrations. The capability integrates teams and products at any point in their digital transformation journey. InnoVet supports not replaces the customer’s current technology by combining cross-functional data and analysis for the decision-maker.
