Exonaut Trials & Experimentation Management

Exonaut Trials and Experimentation Management enables defence organisations to better plan, execute, and evaluate trials with precision and efficiency. 

Improve and Streamline Planning, Execution and Evaluation 

By leveraging AI-supported analytics, integrated data management, and collaborative tools, Exonaut ensures that experimentation processes are clear, fair, consistent, and data-driven. 

The Trials and Experimentation Management solution provides real-time insights, optimises resource allocation, and captures critical data even in challenging environments, enabling informed decision-making and ensuring that equipment and capabilities are tested comprehensively and objectively to support procurement, doctrine, or readiness.

Common trials and experimentation management challenges 

Complexity
Data Utilisation
Real-Tme Data
Resources
Validation
Collaboration
Offline data

Complex workflows and planning 

Planning and managing trials and experimentation activities involves extensive coordination involving multiple stakeholders, processes, and data sources, which often results in complex workflows and administrative burdens. 

Utilising relevant data 

Data collected during trials and experimentation is often siloed and stored in diverse systems. It is difficult to integrate findings or derive actionable insights without aggregated data sets. 

Capturing real-time data for analysis 

Defence organisations need to capture data during trials and quickly analyse it to make informed decisions, including whether to re-run the trial. However, existing tools often lack the capacity to support real-time collection, processing, and feedback. 

Managing global resources 

Requesting and allocating resources, including personnel, equipment, and test sites, whether owned or not, is challenging and time consuming. These inefficiencies often lead to overspend and delayed experimentation. 

Validating results 

Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of trial outcomes can be difficult, especially when dealing with manual data entry or fragmented data. Validation processes need to be robust, consistent, transparent and integrated. 

Collaborating effectively 

Effective collaboration between stakeholders—such as data scientists, engineers, and military staff—is essential but often hampered by a toolset that doesn’t support simultaneous input, shared analysis, and transparent decision-making. 

Offline data collection 

Trials often take place in environments where network connectivity is unreliable or unavailable. This makes it difficult to capture data and increases the risk of losing critical information from the event.

How can Exonaut help you solve these challenges to increase readiness?

Integrated planning improves coordination

With one centralised system, with permission-based access for all stakeholders, experimentation planning is streamlined and accessible. Users can easily coordinate agile activities, evaluate plans, track processes, and access relevant data in one place, reducing administrative burdens and simplifying workflows.

Centralised data management supports better decision-making

Exonaut consolidates data from the different stages of trials and experiments in a centralised place eliminating data silos and improving access among stakeholders. This enables users to derive actionable insights from a rich and unified dataset, supporting better decision-making.

Real-time data capture and analysis enables real-time actions

Real-time data capture and analysis tools, dynamic dashboards that provide visibility of ongoing trials, and AI-supported analytics, all help to provide valuable and timely insights. This helps planners make informed decisions and adapt experiments, as they are happening, to maximise effectiveness and save time.

Resource management tools optimise resource allocation

Exonaut resource management tools help overcome logistic challenges through optimised allocation of personnel, equipment, and test sites. Automated notifications alert users to any conflicts that can be quickly resolved, minimising delays, and enabling teams to focus on the experimental goals. This helps maximise the value derived from experimentation activities.

Robust validation ensures accuracy and consistency

Structured and automated validation tools ensure that trial results are accurate, reliable, and consistent. Reducing the reliance on manual data entry minimises errors, improves decision-making and enhances the credibility of experimental outcomes.

Automated reporting saves time and improves planning

Automated report generation based on experimental data, provides stakeholders with clear and concise summaries. It removes much of the mundane work involved in report writing and helps decision-makers validate trial outcomes quickly and effectively, improving transparency and supporting strategic planning.
