Deffintech PCC — Platforms

Decisions that get examined later

Four platforms for work that has to stand up to scrutiny after the fact: the plan and the after-action review, the exercise log, the procurement trail. Each one is built to leave a record — not just to reach a decision, but to show how it was reached.

Parmenion

Operational planning & exercise control

A staff works the problem from mission analysis to a written order — then runs it.

Parmenion is a planning and simulation environment built to NATO doctrine. A headquarters moves through tactical planning (APP-28) and operational planning (COPD) phase by phase, develops and wargames courses of action, compares them on evidence, and issues an operation order — then executes it as a controlled exercise in which the director governs exactly what each participant can see.

Beneath the workflow it models a real order of battle — formations built from prototypes, equipped and sustained by NATO supply class — and the analytical methods a planning staff would recognise: attrition, decision points, campaign simulation and multi-axis strike optimisation. Nothing is a black box: every order, query and result is recorded for the after-action review and can be reconstructed afterwards.

What it does

  • Tactical planning — APP-28Three phases, seven steps, from mission analysis to the orders group.
  • Operational planning — COPDThe four-phase, twelve-step operational process, worked in sequence.
  • Course-of-action wargamingAction–reaction–counteraction with modelled attrition and decision points.
  • Multi-axis strike optimisationSEAD and strike planning across competing axes and effects.
  • Theatre simulationContinuous-time, event-driven modelling across land, sea and air.
  • Order of battleFormations from prototypes, with equipment and manpower to establishment.
  • Logistics — NATO classes I–XConsumption, holdings and sustainment derived from the force laid down.
  • Exercise controlHierarchical command, orders, subordinate queries and mission reports.
  • After-action reviewObservations, instructor verdicts and a reconstructable record of the run.

Kerveros

Cyber security training & simulation

Every threat, mapped to a defence — then run against your team.

Kerveros pairs threat-awareness education with hands-on exercises. Structured, graded courses run from beginner to expert and end in a certificate that can be checked, so competency is demonstrated rather than assumed. Its coverage maps 119 MITRE ATT&CK techniques and reaches past the framework into insider threat, supply-chain risk, physical security and governance failure.

Named tabletop exercises — Styx, Lethe, Charon and Tartarus Warden — put a red team, a blue team and a white-cell facilitator against realistic incidents such as ransomware and insider exfiltration. Every exercise is written to append-only, hash-chained logs, so the record is tamper-evident and the outcome defensible long after the room clears.

What it does

  • Four-tier coursesBeginner to expert, self-paced, with graded evaluations.
  • Verifiable certificatesPublicly checkable proof of completion and competency.
  • 119 ATT&CK techniquesReconnaissance to lateral movement, each mapped to a defence.
  • Beyond the frameworkInsider threat, supply chain, physical security, governance.
  • Red / blue / white-cell exercisesFour runnable scenarios with attacker, defender and facilitator.
  • Realistic incidentsRansomware, insider exfiltration and comparable real-world play.
  • Tamper-evident logsAppend-only, hash-chained records of every exercise.
  • Rubric-based scoringConsistent assessment against a published rubric.
  • Air-gapped deploymentRuns inside your boundary with role-based access control.

Hermes

Secure defence procurement

Who asked for what, who approved it, on what terms — and can you still show it.

Hermes is a procurement platform for the defence sector, built around the question that outlasts the purchase. It carries a requirement through its whole life — request, approval, sourcing, award — and holds the trail together so that months later the decision is still answerable: every approval attributed, every change dated, every document in its place.

Defence procurement is examined — by auditors, by oversight, by the next programme that inherits the contract. Hermes treats that scrutiny as the design brief rather than an afterthought, keeping access controlled and the record intact for whoever has to account for it later.

What it covers

  • Requirement to awardThe procurement lifecycle carried end to end in one place.
  • Approval workflowWho signed off, in what order, and when.
  • Supplier & sourcingStructured management of suppliers and competitive sourcing.
  • Controlled accessRole-based permissions across the transaction lifecycle.
  • Audit trailAn attributable, dated record that survives review.
  • Secure by designBuilt for a sector where every decision is accounted for.

Hermes‑OG

Secure oil & gas procurement

The same discipline, carried into the energy supply chain.

Hermes-OG takes the Hermes platform into oil and gas, where procurement runs long, spans many suppliers, and is audited just as closely. The commodity changes; the question does not — who committed to what, and can you still show it — and the platform keeps that trail intact across the energy supply chain.

It shares Hermes' lineage and its stance: controlled access, attributable approvals, and a record built to survive the audit rather than be reconstructed for it.

What it covers

  • Energy supply chainProcurement across oil-and-gas sourcing and award.
  • Requirement to awardThe full lifecycle held together in one system.
  • Approval workflowAttributable sign-off at each step.
  • Controlled accessRole-based permissions across the lifecycle.
  • Audit trailA dated, attributable record that survives review.
  • Shared lineageThe Hermes platform, fitted to the sector.
