Case Study: Astranis achieves faster satellite testing and full traceability with First Resonance's ION Factory Operating System

Connecting the (whole) world with ION Factory Operating System (OS)

Astranis, a fast-growing satellite company working to connect underserved regions with low-cost internet and telecom services, needed a highly customized way to manage the thousands of tests, parts, and build steps involved in developing each satellite. To support its rapid growth and mission-critical production, Astranis adopted First Resonance’s ION Factory Operating System (OS).

With First Resonance’s ION Factory OS, Astranis automated test execution and reporting, improved traceability across the full satellite build process, and streamlined issue management and auditing. The result was about 50% less engineering time spent on manual testing work, plus real-time access to structured data, custom dashboards, and auditable end-to-end product traceability.
