Capacity
Capacity, not a conflict guess
A structural score on industrial base, institutional will, and coalition cohesion — never a probability on war.
Defense & aerospace playbook
Score the system's capacity
to hold — not the odds of war.
For defense and aerospace strategy teams, and defense-focused PE — six-domain reads on nations, alliances, and industrial bases. No war-widget probabilities.
Threat feeds score intent.
The Index scores capacity to sustain it.
What it means for you
You time programs, sourcing, and market entry to structural capacity — not a conflict guess.
The payoff
What you leave with.
Lead
Lead time on program risk
Stress flagged months before a supplier fails, a program stalls, or a coalition commitment cracks publicly.
Evidence
Evidence your board can use
Source-traced, evidence-tiered scoring — defensible in a board pack or LP diligence room.
See it on a system that matters to defense & aerospace— then Get started.
The gap
Your intel stack reads intent, not capacity to sustain
OSINT feeds, threat assessments, and country-risk services score adversary intent and event odds. They miss industrial base, institutional will, and coalition cohesion — what decides whether a state or alliance can actually hold a program or posture.
Threat & OSINT feeds
Event and capability tracking — not a read on bandwidth to sustain a posture.
Country risk services
Static annual ratings — not a live six-domain score your program office can replay.
Political-military analyst narrative
Subjective and conflict-framed — not a score defensible to a board or LP.
What the Index reads
The lenses that matter on your desk.
Same six-domain instrument. For defense & aerospace, these are the reads that change the decision.
Body
Industrial base, production capacity, and physical infrastructure — the hard constraint on any program.
Adaptation
Bandwidth to sustain a program or posture through shocks — surge capacity before it's tested.
Courage
Institutional and political will to commit and hold — depletion shows up as program delay, not headlines.
Identity
Coalition and institutional cohesion — alliance fragmentation before it reaches a communiqué.
Perceived
Public posture vs. structural capacity — where miscalculation risk concentrates.
In practice
Where it lands in your work.
01
Client-nation demand signal
Score allied and partner nations as adaptive systems — bandwidth often moves before a procurement cycle or FMS request.
02
Defense PE target and sector screening
Score the operating environment of target regions and supply nodes before you commit capital to a defense-adjacent platform.
03
Industrial base resilience monitoring
Track domain stress across allied industrial bases and critical suppliers — cascade flags before a single point of failure goes public.
04
Program and market-entry timing
Time bids, JVs, and market entry to structural windows — not headline-driven procurement announcements.
How you run it
Program and strategy workflow
01
Scope nation and industrial-base watchlist
Client nations, allied systems, and critical supplier geographies — scored on the same instrument as sovereign systems.
02
Weekly structural scan
Signal reports flag regime and domain deterioration. Alerts fire on phase crossings relevant to program timelines.
03
Monthly flagship + Travis briefing
Board- and LP-ready profile, plus a quarterly walkthrough with Dr. Hanes for strategy and BD leadership.
04
Time the decision
Bid, invest, or accelerate with documented structural evidence — not a conflict-probability estimate.
Why trust it
Stress before the program disruption is public
Framework replays on regime-collapse systems show industrial and adaptive bandwidth depleting months before a program, supply node, or coalition commitment visibly fails — the signature strategy and PE teams now watch for in client-nation and supplier systems.
Systems stress, not conflict prediction: capacity, bandwidth, and cohesion scored on a reproducible instrument.

Straight answers
Before you request pricing.
Do you predict conflicts or war outcomes?
No. The Index never scores conflict probability or dyadic relationship odds. It measures structural capacity — industrial, institutional, and adaptive bandwidth — to sustain a policy or posture.
Is this a wargaming or threat-assessment tool?
No. Wargaming and threat assessment model adversary intent and scenarios. The Index scores capacity in nations and industrial systems — a complementary layer.
How does this work for defense PE diligence?
Score target sectors, supplier geographies, and client-nation exposure before committing capital — the same six-domain read used for sovereign systems, scoped to your deal.
One instrument.
Two ways in.
License the live World Index for ongoing scores and Watch/Act on countries, corridors, sectors, and markets — or commission an Internal Index on your organization: regime, threat call, ninety-day plan, and Day-90 Checkpoint. Same physics; Internal Index is a sealed engagement, not a live watchlist. Get started — exact price after Approve. Built for defense & aerospace workflows.
