Capabilities

A fluid, responsive task-oriented team of professionals dedicated to the success of your next project or mission.

Optimal Defense Solutions provides capable, experienced, and trained personnel who are well versed in operations across both civilian and military applications. We’re a goal-oriented team of professionals able to help your organization reach new heights.

Optimal Defense Solutions is an organization capable of managing the diverse needs of compartmentalized organizations and structures, operating across disciplines to provide best in class support, service, and full life cycle management. We are able to build on success after success due to the unique talents our organization cultivates. Former military personnel are trained to understand what can at times appear to be unreasonable or backwards expectations of their civilian counterparts, and civilians are trained to work with what they can also sometimes view as backwards or unreasonable expectation on part of their military counterparts.

In many ways it is not only the expertise of ODS personnel that makes the difference in our projects, but also the ability of our staff to seamlessly integrate into and interact with existing organizations and staff at contract sites and elsewhere.
