Case Study: Echodyne achieves AS9100 and ITAR compliance with Arena Solutions

Achieving AS9100 and ITAR Compliance With Connected PLM and QMS

Echodyne, a defense technology company, needed a secure way to manage product development and quality processes while meeting strict aerospace and defense regulations such as AS9100 and ITAR. To address this challenge, Echodyne chose Arena Solutions’ Arena PLM for AWS GovCloud, along with Arena’s QMS, to support globally dispersed teams and maintain compliance across the product lifecycle.

Arena Solutions implemented a connected PLM and QMS environment with multilayered security, workflow automation, and integrations to Altium, NetSuite, and Tulip. The result was improved efficiency, fewer manual errors, faster BOM transfer to production, better manufacturing planning, and stronger quality control through automated device history records and real-time engineering-to-manufacturing feedback loops.
