Accelerate Your Avionics Software Compliance with Confidence

At Unical Systems, we specialize in helping aerospace and defense organizations achieve compliance with RTCA DO-178C—the globally recognized standard for airborne software safety. Whether you’re building a new product or seeking to certify existing software, our DO-178C consulting services are tailored to simplify your journey from development to certification.


What is DO-178C?

DO-178C, or Software Considerations in Airborne Systems and Equipment Certification, is a critical guideline issued by RTCA for the development and verification of safety-critical software used in aircraft systems. It is mandated by certification authorities like FAA, EASA, and DGCA for airborne software used in commercial, military, and UAV platforms.


🔍 Why DO-178C Matters

  • Ensures airworthiness and safety of onboard software

  • Required for certification by aviation authorities

  • Defines Development Assurance Levels (DAL A to E) based on failure severity

  • Demands traceability from requirements to code to test cases

  • Enforces rigorous verification and validation (V&V) processes
