Disconnected Systems Kill Capability.
97Helix Brings Programs to Life.
97Helix is a hyperscaling, fully integrated digital engineering ecosystem that transforms today's disconnected toolchain into an enterprise-level capability engine. It lets programs instantly provision more than 80 market-leading tools and seamlessly weave data from 3D design, systems engineering, configuration management, DevSecOps, requirements, modeling and simulation, operational data, program management, and digital twins directly into the program's DNA.
By connecting every artifact and tool through a unified digital thread and applying AI to uncover relationships, predict impacts, and accelerate decisions, 97Helix rapidly brings programs to life. Its intelligent orchestration, proven in powering Spacestation and DEC in fully managed IL5 and IL6 environments, lets teams begin engineering on day one and scale effortlessly as new tools, data, and mission demands arise.
Purpose-Built for the Digital-First Mission
97Helix hosts digital engineering applications, connects authoritative data sources, and creates digital threads from intelligently discovered relationships across the entire acquisition and sustainment lifecycle, bringing everything together in an intuitive single pane of glass where programs operate from one unified source of truth.
Accelerate Acquisition and Sustainment
97Helix runs on the same proven architecture behind Spacestation, Sabel's IL5/IL6-authorized platform for USSF programs. No commercial adaptation required. Your program operates in a DoD-native environment from day one.
Unified Digital Thread
Connects MBSE, PLM, requirements, sustainment, and authoring systems into a single, authoritative lifecycle data environment, eliminating the data gaps that fragment program decision-making.
Interoperability Without Limits
Purpose-built ontologies and a configurable connector library let 97Helix integrate with any program tool set, classified or commercial, without custom development slowing you down.
Security and Compliance by Design
Builds compliance, cyber automation, and threat detection into the platform architecture, not on top of it. Security travels with every deployment, across every environment and classification level.
Program Execution at Scale
Deploy new tools in days not months. Scale from pilot to enterprise deployments supporting tens of thousands of users. Enable secure data transfer and workflows across classification boundaries.
Programs Execute. Not Just Access.
- Deploy new tools in days not months, aligned to rapid onboarding expectations
- Scale from pilot environments to enterprise deployments supporting tens of thousands of users
- Integrated DoD ICAMs and Industry Identity Providers for automated user onboarding and access control
- Real-time dashboards for application usage, license consumption, and cloud spend
- Consistent user experience across IL5 and IL6 environments with minimal rework
- Secure data transfer and workflows across classification boundaries
Five Modules. One Unified Environment.
Deploy each module individually to solve a specific program problem, or run all five together to build a complete, interoperable program environment from infrastructure to insight.
nimbusCORE powers 97Helix with a unified, secure control plane that deploys applications and mission environments in one click across FedRAMP and DoD approved on-prem, cloud, and hybrid infrastructures. Automates cybersecurity compliance and threat detection, accelerates DevSecOps, and structures data from Unclassified to TS/SCI and SAP/SAR.
- Deploys to on-prem, FedRAMP commercial AWS/Azure, and hybrid stacks
- One-click provisioning of applications and isolated, security-compliant program environments
- Automated cyber compliance, patching, and Zero Trust access control built in
- Unified control plane across DevSecOps pipelines, infrastructure, and identity
- Scales from single program use to enterprise-wide digital engineering environments
collabCORE integrates Agile work management, portfolio visibility, DevSecOps, and Helpdesk workflows directly into the digital thread, connecting what teams do to what programs produce. Tasks, decisions, and deliverables live inside the same data environment, not alongside it.
- Integrated task tracking and Agile workflow management
- Documentation spaces and configurable dashboarding
- Optional code-repository integration for DevSecOps
- Portfolio management connected to the digital thread
dataCORE is the intelligence engine of 97Helix. It unifies MBSE, PLM, requirements, and sustainment data through DoD-purpose-built ontologies, then runs deep learning models across that unified data to surface hidden relationships, predict cost drivers, and accelerate program decisions that manual analysis would never reach in time.
- DoD-purpose-built ontologies that map program data to a common model, no schema consulting required
- Unifies MBSE, PLM, requirements, and sustainment sources into one queryable data layer
- AI relationship discovery surfaces interdependencies across program elements and lifecycle phases
- Predictive cost and schedule models reduce analytical burden on overloaded program teams
connectCORE eliminates the integration tax. A pre-built connector library links 97Helix to the PLM, MBSE, CM, and sustainment tools your program already uses, turning what would be months of custom development into a configuration exercise measured in days.
- Pre-built connectors for Teamcenter, Cameo, DOORS, Windchill, Ansys, MATLAB, and other common DE tools
- Configures integration with hosted and external systems without custom code
- Unifies data across network and classification boundaries
- Extends to commercial and classified environments
The engineering application layer of 97Helix. engCORE leverages nimbusCORE to provision, host, configure, and integrate the full digital engineering tool suite that program engineers, systems engineers, and test teams actually use. Programs stop standing up environments and start building systems.
- CAD hosting (NX, Creo, SolidWorks, CATIA): secure, cloud-delivered, compliant from login
- MBSE environments (Cameo, MSSA, Jama, Sparx) that scale to models beyond 25,000 elements
- Requirements management (IBM DOORS Next) connected to the digital thread on day one
- PLM hosting (Teamcenter, Windchill) with integrated authentication and ABAC
- MS&A tools (Ansys STK, Ansys ModelCenter, MATLAB) with intelligent dynamic compute scaling
- IIoT data ingestion, edge integration, and operational digital twin orchestration from sensor to cloud
- Digital twin environments for design verification, performance analysis, and sustainment insight
- All tool environments pre-authorized, patched, and security-compliant: engineers work, not wait
One View. Every System. The Full Lifecycle.
97Helix connects engineering, program management, and logistics through a unified digital thread into an interconnected data environment from design through sustainment. Every stakeholder operates from the same information, eliminating reconciliation across disconnected systems.

Intelligence Built on Authoritative Data
97Helix transforms decades of digital engineering expertise into tailored, AI-ready ontologies within a fully connected, governed, and trusted data environment. Analysis works because the data is refined from real program experience: unified, contextualized, and reliable.
- Discover relationships across lifecycle data
- Predict impacts to cost, schedule, and performance
- Use natural language to navigate complex program information and extensive standards libraries
AI agents inform decision-makers, propose solutions, and validate decisions. The environment makes those decisions possible.
Relationship Discovery
Configurable AI models map hidden interdependencies across MBSE, PLM, requirements, and sustainment data, surfacing connections that manual analysis misses before they become program surprises.
Predictive Impact Analysis
When a system changes, 97Helix shows you the downstream effects before they cascade, protecting schedule, cost, and mission outcomes with time to act rather than time to recover.
3D BOM Visualization
Three-dimensional Bill of Materials views and configurable dashboards make program data structure immediately navigable, replacing static spreadsheets with interactive, queryable structure.
Generative AI Assistant
The embedded AI assistant delivers natural language access to complex specifications and datasets. Ask a question in plain English and get a precise answer. No data model expertise required.
