Trusted Engineering Solutions for Aerospace and Commercial Projects
Force Engineering has been delivering specialized engineering solutions since 2006. Our team brings over two decades of collaborative experience in aerospace and commercial product development, originating from our roots at Condor Pacific Industries and BAE SYSTEMS Inertial Products Inc. We specialize in turn-key product development, providing both engineering talent and comprehensive project management. Our aerospace expertise spans system design for fixed and rotary wing aircraft, missiles, and satellite systems, while our commercial work includes concept development through to functional prototypes. We maintain in-house test facilities for thermal, vibration, and EMI testing, complemented by partnerships for specialized validation.Our engineers utilize advanced tools like MATLAB, LabVIEW, and SolidWorks to deliver solutions from circuit board layout to full system qualification. With a focus on avionics, inertial systems, and test platforms, we support clients from initial concept through low-volume production. Our documentation processes ensure complete traceability, including schematics, 3D models, and qualification reports. We pride ourselves on delivering cohesive team solutions rather than individual consultants, streamlining project execution for clients. Our commitment to technical excellence is demonstrated through decades of successful projects for both Fortune 500 companies and entrepreneurial innovators.
