Polyrhythm harnesses the transformative power of Open Source Software (OSS) to accelerate the Department of Defense’s (DoD) software modernization efforts. Our approach aligns with the DoD’s policy, recognizing OSS as essential for rapid, secure, and innovative software development.
Our expertise spans high-performance software engineering in languages such as C, C++, C#, and Rust for desktop and embedded applications, alongside mastery in scripting languages like Python and Lua. This diversified skill set empowers us to contribute to and leverage the vast ecosystem of OSS, ensuring that our defense solutions are built on a foundation of reliability and performance.
01
Development of Open Source that is available either to the public or within DoD channels is fundamental to many of our software, simulation, and mission engineering projects.
02
Our commitment to OSS extends beyond utilization. We actively support open source projects, contributing to their evolution, and adopt authoritative open source solutions to drive technical excellence in DoD applications.
03
Our rigorous review of software license agreements and the construction of Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) for our projects ensure compliance and swift responsiveness to vulnerabilities, fortifying the trustworthiness and resilience of our software solutions against emerging threats.
Understanding the strategic significance of software factories, Polyrhythm designs and implements these advanced ecosystems to expedite application development. By harmonizing culture, processes, and technology, we create environments that catalyze the delivery of innovative software solutions, significantly reducing development timelines and enhancing operational agility within the DoD framework.
Our practices resonate with the DoD’s “Adopt, Buy, Create” guidance for software acquisitions, prioritizing the use of off-the-shelf software, including OSS, for driving software modernization across defense programs. The DoD’s emphasis on the security and strategic advantages of OSS reinforces our approach to delivering software solutions that not only meet but exceed the operational demands of modern warfare.
Polyrhythm is committed to an open-by-default stance for non-National Security Systems programs, advocating for the release of non-critical components as open source to foster a collaborative defense innovation ecosystem. This stance aligns with the DoD’s goal of reducing development costs and accelerating the adoption of secure and efficient software solutions.
