SPARC connects every analysis methodology into a single platform with full traceability, from functional hazard assessment through to safety case argumentation.
Safety engineers work across RWB FT+, CAFTA, Excel, Word and standalone GSN editors with no native links between them. Every trace is manual. Every report rebuilt from scratch. Every audit is a scramble to prove the chain of evidence.
SPARC integrates the full suite of safety and reliability methodologies with traceability built in from day one. Change a failure condition in your FHA, see the impact in your FTA, FMEA and safety case immediately. Generate compliant reports with a single click.
Functional hazard assessment with severity classification and architecture linking.
Probabilistic FTA with Boolean reduction, cut sets, and cross-system transfers.
Component-level failure mode analysis with RPN scoring and hardware allocation.
Control structure modelling with loss scenarios and unsafe control action tracing.
Integrated common cause analysis in one workflow, not four spreadsheets.
Visual goal structured notation linked to supporting evidence and analysis.
Markov chains, reliability block diagrams, and quantitative failure rate analysis.
Structured ALARP with risk matrices, cost-benefit, and tolerability assessment.
Automated reports meeting ARP4761A expectations. Analysis to deliverable in one click.
13+ years in aerospace safety engineering across civil transport, autonomous eVTOL, and military programmes. Former Technical Signatory at a major airframer with regulatory authority across four widebody aircraft platforms, delivering complete safety documentation suites for multiple type certification campaigns. Experience in autonomous eVTOL safety assessment under FAA novel certification frameworks. Currently supporting military derivative and commercial flight control safety analysis.
Member of SAE S-18, the committee responsible for ARP4761 and ARP4754, and co-author of AIR6913 (STPA methodology). Participant in EUROCAE WG63. SPARC exists because the tools available today don't match the way safety engineers actually work. Disconnected applications, manual traceability, and reports rebuilt from scratch every time. After thousands of hours using these tools on real programmes, the gaps became impossible to ignore.
We're raising seed funding to accelerate development and bring SPARC to market. The safety tooling market is underserved by legacy desktop applications with no integration, no traceability, and no modern user experience. SPARC is being built to replace them.
