Pain points we solve

1

Program documentation scattered across spreadsheets and email

Unclassified supplier work still demands organized records — purchase orders, drawings, revisions, and certifications spread across inboxes make every customer inquiry a scavenger hunt. Axis keeps projects, parts, and documents in one workspace so your team can find the current record in seconds.

2

Prime contractors expect disciplined record-keeping

Even on unclassified commercial work, primes expect their suppliers to show who changed what and when. Axis records access control, audit logging, and revision history for every project record, so you can answer a prime's documentation request without a fire drill.

3

Specification-driven documentation (travelers, build records)

Supply chain work is specification-driven — travelers and build records that trace every material and process step. Paper-based systems cannot keep up with the documentation volume or the revision frequency. Axis build plans carry that detail digitally with full revision history.

4

Customer audits demand traceable records

Supplier reviews demand complete records of who did what, when, and to which record. Axis provides an append-only audit log that captures every action with user, timestamp, and IP address — so your records are ready when a customer asks.

How Axis helps

Row-level data isolation

Every workspace is completely segregated at the database level using Postgres row-level security. Data from one workspace is invisible to users of another — enforced by the database engine, not application code.

Enterprise-grade security

AES-256 encryption for integration credentials, Argon2id password hashing (OWASP 2024 recommended), multi-factor authentication with TOTP, and HttpOnly secure session cookies. Security is infrastructure, not a feature toggle.

Specification-driven build plans

Build plans with approval workflows support rigorous, specification-driven documentation. Each plan carries revision history, owner, approver, and effective date — with full change control.

Append-only audit trail

Every action is logged with user, timestamp, IP address, and record reference. The log is append-only — no edits, no deletions. That gives you traceable history when a customer or prime contractor asks for it.

Role-based access control

Engineers, operators, inspectors, and program managers each have appropriate access. Permissions are enforced at the database level, not just the UI — preventing data leakage even through API access.

Document and record management

Attach military specifications, customer drawings, test reports, and certifications directly to the records they support. Documents are versioned, searchable, and linked to the production records that reference them.

Traceability built into every layer
