Innovative Concepts, Inc.’s aerospace engineering consulting and technical services group is an agile and highly skilled group, with over forty years combined professional experience in space systems development and the radiation effects area.

We perform meaningful analysis, measurements, testing, assessments, modeling and predictions for government, commercial and international aerospace programs. In addition, we offer our customers services beyond measuring effects…we recommend solutions. We provide our customers with engineering consulting services to include performance enhancement recommendations, system design analysis and other specialty systems engineering services.

What sets Innovative Concepts, Inc. apart?
Innovative Concepts, Inc. provides our aerospace customers with services well beyond accelerator device testing. Our experts have significant technical skills, knowledge, experience, and more importantly vision that have brought success to many space missions. We offer a refreshing and proven perspective - that good system engineering always works and that radiation effects activities can be applied effectively to system development.

With extensive practical knowledge backed by many years of actual space system experience, our group successfully provides detailed system design reviews to identify potential issues and problem areas and provides meaningful recommendations.

Our group delivers an integrated work process and product that ensures mission success and always considers the fine balance of cost, schedule and system performance.

Our unique expertise and capabilities range from basic to applied research and development in all major space radiation effects including:
Single Event Effects (SEE)
Total dose (TID) and dose rate effects
Displacement damage
Charging

We maintain access to many world-class ground based radiation source facilities, including:
Crocker Nuclear Laboratory (CNL)
Indiana University Cyclotron Facility (IUCF)
Texas A&M University Cyclotron (TAMU)
National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) and
Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory (LBL)

Technical Approach
Innovative Concepts, Inc.’s technical approach is to determine as accurately as possible the circumstances under which a technology or design can be used reliably to exploit its strengths and mitigate its weaknesses.

Innovative Concepts, Inc. finds and focuses on system level success rather than solely on component level failure. This opens up system design, development, and performance possibilities without compromise.

With a firm understanding of the natural space environment, radiation transport, mechanisms, and physics behind radiation effects, combined with clear communication, we provide customers success in the best possible way.
