Happy Thanksgiving

At PDES, Inc., we are thankful for our members who provide the direction and resources to facilitate the development and implementation of information standards that support the model-based enterprise. While we are grateful that we have made significant progress in reducing interoperability costs, addressing quality issues, and enabling the archiving and retrieval of product data, we are working diligently to increase the capabilities of these standards into areas such as persistent identifiers and digital twins.

PDES, Inc. honors Veterans Day

On this Veterans Day, PDES, Inc. proudly salutes the men and women who served in the Armed Forces protecting our freedom. Their courage, sacrifice, and commitment to excellence inspires everything we do.

At PDES, Inc., our mission is to support those who serve by advancing the technologies that strengthen our nation’s defense capabilities. We collaborate with aerospace leaders to develop and implement standards that improve how aircraft and defense systems are designed, built, and maintained.

Through initiatives in quality management, composites, machining, persistent identifiers, and digital manufacturing standards, PDES, Inc. helps ensure that every component and system supporting the war fighter meets the highest levels of performance, safety, and interoperability. These standards not only ensure consistent quality—they accelerate the integration of new technologies that give our servicemen and women an operational edge.

The excellence our veterans exemplify in the field drives our pursuit of excellence in engineering and manufacturing. Every improvement we help enable—from better materials to smarter data exchange—pays tribute to their service by contributing to safer, more capable aircraft and equipment.

Today, and every day, we honor their dedication, their sacrifice, and their enduring legacy.

PDES, Inc. proudly stands with our veterans.
We remember. We honor. We advance.
