Frequently Asked Questions

No. ALIEN ORCHESTRATION operates as an intelligence layer above existing infrastructure—it doesn't replace your systems, it orchestrates them. Integrates via RESTful APIs, message queues, and database connectors while your legacy systems (SAP, Oracle, Salesforce, custom tools) remain unchanged. Deployment measured in weeks, not years, with immediate operational value.

RESTful APIs, Kafka, RabbitMQ, SQL/NoSQL databases, SOAP, gRPC, and custom protocols. If your system has an interface, we can orchestrate it. No code changes required to existing systems—coordination happens at the integration layer through standard enterprise connectivity patterns.

Custom integrations built to your specifications using your existing APIs and data formats. We work with your engineering team to understand system boundaries and build appropriate connectors. Proprietary protocols supported through adapter development.

Initial deployment to operational status: weeks, not years. We focus on high-value workflows first to demonstrate immediate ROI, then expand incrementally as value proves out. Pilot programs typically operational within 30-60 days depending on environment complexity and integration requirements.

Coordinates engineering change orders, OEM approvals, and continued airworthiness documentation across parallel modification programs. Integrates with existing PDM/PLM systems and regulatory tracking databases without replacing them. Configuration control maintained across 40,000+ technical data elements with real-time conflict detection when parallel programs create dependency chains.

Orchestrates maintenance planning, AOG responses, and quality assurance workflows while maintaining FAA compliance documentation. Integrates with existing MRO software, inventory systems, and regulatory databases. Coordinates inspection scheduling, discrepancy tracking, and sign-off workflows across distributed teams with real-time visibility into compliance status.

Yes. Coordinates inspection scheduling, discrepancy tracking, and sign-off workflows across distributed teams. Real-time visibility into compliance status without manual coordination overhead. Maintains complete audit trail for regulatory inspection.

Yes. Architecture supports air-gapped deployments with cross-domain coordination via hardware-enforced boundaries. No cloud dependency required. Designed for secure isolated environments with proper deployment architecture. Local execution with distributed consensus for coordination without compromising compartmentalization.

Platform designed for CMMC compliance with proper deployment architecture. Security controls documented and auditable. FedRAMP pathway in development—current focus on CMMC Level 2 compliance for DoD contractors. Contact for detailed security documentation and compliance roadmap.

Autonomous execution capabilities when communications are denied. Local decision authority with eventual consistency upon reconnection. Byzantine fault tolerance ensures coordination continues even when network partitions occur. No single point of failure—distributed consensus maintains operational integrity.

Yes. Audit trail compliance with electronic signature support and ALCOA+ data integrity enforced at workflow level. Designed for cGMP environments with complete traceability and validation documentation. System validation packages available for regulatory submission.

Coordinates mass spectrometry, HPLC, flow cytometry, and custom research equipment. Integrates with LIMS/ELN systems for complete traceability. Microsecond-precision timing coordination across distributed instrumentation while maintaining complete audit trails for regulatory inspection.

Deterministic protocol execution with real-time ICH guideline validation. Coordinates patient scheduling, data collection, and regulatory reporting workflows. Integrates with existing EDC (Electronic Data Capture) systems and clinical trial management platforms without replacement.

Architecture designed for next-generation photonic substrates with sub-picosecond timing requirements. Actively seeking strategic partnerships with photonic hardware manufacturers for validation on optical interference-based processing systems. Contact us if you're developing photonic computing platforms.

Hybrid classical-quantum orchestration capabilities in development. Designed to coordinate classical preprocessing, quantum circuit execution, and post-processing workflows. Seeking partnerships with quantum hardware providers to validate coordination architectures.

Distributed multi-agent coordination with Byzantine consensus for autonomous systems. Real-time state synchronization across heterogeneous platforms operating under contested communications. Compatible with ROS, AUTOSAR, and custom real-time control architectures.

Sub-millisecond coordination latency for time-critical operations. Overhead is negligible compared to manual coordination delays and error correction costs. Performance scales horizontally—additional load distributed across coordination nodes without degradation.

Byzantine fault tolerance with distributed consensus. No single point of failure. Graceful degradation to local operation if coordination temporarily unavailable. Systems continue operating with reduced coordination capability until full connectivity restored.

No. On-premise, air-gapped, and hybrid deployments supported. Cloud-native option available for organizations preferring managed infrastructure, but not required. Architecture identical across deployment models—your choice based on security and operational requirements.

Immediate value upon deployment through coordination automation and error reduction. Projected ROI within first operational quarter for high-frequency workflows based on coordination overhead reduction and error prevention economics.

Pre-production validation with aviation and federal customers currently in progress. Public case studies will be available following operational milestones and customer authorization. We prioritize customer confidentiality and only share references with explicit permission.

Technical briefing with your engineering and IT leadership to assess current architecture and identify high-value orchestration opportunities. No sales theater—just technical discourse between engineers. Contact us at contact@alienorchestration.com to schedule.
