Engineering Consequence

INC3 is an independent technology group that builds and runs software, electronics, applied artificial intelligence and regulated operations.

The group

We are organised around a class of problem rather than a sector.

The difficult work almost never arrives divided along the lines of a single discipline. INC3 is the engineering and operating base that our work is built on, and has been since 2011.

Organisations that fail at hard problems usually fail at the seams: where the software meets the hardware it runs on, where the product meets the authority that licenses it, where the engineering meets the operation that has to sustain it. We are staffed and structured to work across those seams instead of standing on one side of them and negotiating across.

Our engineering is done in-house and extended through an international partner network. We take on a small number of efforts at a time and we see each one through.

Ventures

We build ventures of our own, and we build them with partners.

Some ventures are ours from the start, funded with our own capital and carried on our own balance sheet. Each runs as a distinct effort with its own identity, team and roadmap, and each draws on the same engineering base and the same governance.

Others we build with partners, as joint ventures, or for clients who commission a venture and own what comes out of it. The engineering is the same in every case, and so is the standard we hold it to.

Current programmes span autonomous systems and applied artificial intelligence. Detail on any of them is shared directly with partners, evaluators and investors under agreement.

Disciplines

We take commissioned work from the same base that runs our ventures.

Defence and autonomous systems

We work in counter-UAS, interception, optical sensing and machine autonomy, engineered against European and NATO requirements, by a team that is building the same class of system for itself and therefore carries the consequences of its own design decisions.

Regulated markets

The practice covers compliance frameworks, multi-jurisdiction operations, licensing structure and payment provider relationships. It is led by people who have run a regulated platform at scale and answered for it under genuine supervisory pressure, which is a different education from advising on it.

Applied AI and product

We build models, the software around them and the electronics they run on, carrying the work from feasibility through prototype to a product that ships. Where a problem runs down out of software and into hardware, we follow it there.

Operations and interim leadership

We take turnaround work, restructuring and interim operating roles. We have stabilised an operation under significant regulatory pressure and carried it through to a clean exit, and that is the register in which this work is offered.
