On November 20, Edge Total Intelligence Inc. and Sabel Systems Technology Solutions, LLC announced an expanded strategic partnership to accelerate the deployment of mission-ready digital engineering and operational digital-twin solutions across several key warfighting domains — including maritime, vehicle defense manufacturing, and multiple engineering systems for intelligence in active hostile operating environments.
This expanded strategic partnership furthers our recent announced partnership with Austal USA and teaming with Sabel Systems at the 2025 Defense TechConnect Summit through Friday at the Gaylord in National Harbor, MD. By embedding both Sabel’s deep systems-engineering and defense R&D expertise with EdgeTI’s proven edgeCore, and our newly acquired digital assets from the Austal acquisition announced 4 November 2025, these digital operations platforms will deliver composable, secure, and operationally focused digital twins that support allied government customers within the defense industry’s modernization & defense acquisition objectives.
The partnership is purpose-built to help manufacturers and defense primes accelerate qualification and fielding of digital engineering capabilities that meet stringent government and prime-contractor requirements. By delivering interoperable, demonstrable digital twins and production controls, EdgeTI and Sabel aim to shorten acquisition timelines, strengthen proposals for government contracts, and de-risk demonstrations required by program offices and integrators.
Jim Barrett, CEO, Edge Total Intelligence, said, “Operational digital twins are the next decisive capability for defense manufacturing and sustainment. Pairing edgeCore’s secure, composable operations layer with Sabel’s proven digital engineering capabilities enables speed to delivered capabilities that meet warfighter and defense program expectations for security, auditability, and operational relevance.”
Shawn Purvis, CEO, Sabel Systems, said, “Sabel has long focused on making digital engineering a reality that delivers tangible outcomes across the weapon systems development lifecycle. Our strategic partnership with EdgeTI furthers this critical goal by enabling factory-to-fleet solutions that give our government and allied partners measurable readiness, immediate return on investment, and cost saving benefits.”
