Global Executive Solutions

We are proud to announce a strategic partnership between Global Executive Solutions, Ivis Technologies, and Strong Chain - a collaboration designed to turn the complexity of the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) into a competitive advantage.

By integrating the benefits of the strongchain.ai platform with GES’s mission-driven leadership and the IVIS Compliance Software Suite, we are delivering a unified solution for Primes and Suppliers that keeps pace with the speed of industry.

We are Modernizing the Defense Industrial Base with Actionable Intelligence & Transformational Visibility

Three Pillars of a Stronger Defense Industrial Base:
Our ecosystem centers on three mission-critical modules designed to eliminate the manual "spreadsheet fatigue" plaguing defense logistics:

CMMC (Cybersecurity Compliance): Streamlining the path to certification by simplifying requirements and reducing costs associated with gap assessments. We’ve turned complex NIST requirements into actionable, auditable workflows that protect sensitive data across the entire supplier network.

QMS (Quality Management System): Moving beyond static documentation to a live, automated system that ensures every component meets rigorous AS9100, ISO, EB 2678, and more standards before it ever reaches the assembly line.

Capacity Management: Real-time visibility into the pulse of the industrial base. Primes can now identify latent capacity and manage workforce utilization across sub-tiers to ensure on-time delivery of critical programs.

The Strong Chain + GES + IVIS Advantage: Vision into Action
What sets this partnership apart is how we are enhancing the existing Strong Chain platform.

The GES Vision: We are tailoring these modules to solve specific, high-stakes DIB challenges and strengthen national defense manufacturing as a whole.

Strong Chain Vision: Empowering the Defense Industrial Base to deliver quality products and services compliantly and stay in the game.

The IVIS Compliance Software Suite: Leveraging Ivis, we are continuously injecting new features based on customer needs, implementing governmental standards and tactical data layers into the platform. This ensures that as the DoD’s requirements evolve, our platform evolves ahead of them.

The result?

For Suppliers: Lower barriers to entry and automated compliance and enhanced communication with customers.

For Primes: Deep-tier visibility and reduced program risk with clear, dashboard transparency.

For the DIB: A resilient, secure, and ready-to-scale industrial engine with visibility into improvement efforts.

Together, we’re not just monitoring the supply chain - we’re optimizing the Defense Industrial Base.

Saronic Technologies is moving to integrate AI-driven welding robotics in an exciting and encouraging step toward modernizing shipbuilding from the deckplates to the top floor. But facilities are only part of the solution; leadership and accountability must evolve too for US to enter a new era of shipbuilding dominance.

Presidents’ Day is often framed around leadership at the national level.

Let's remember that today is less about titles and more about stewardship: of people, systems, and the work entrusted to us.

Happy Presidents Day from GES.

Pete Hegseth's "Arsenal of Freedom Tour" will be stopping at Quonset Point today to reinforce a critical point: America’s security moves at the speed of its Defense Industrial Base. Unfortunately, that speed is not where it needs to be. Delays in shipbuilding, systems, and delivery timelines extend far beyond project plans; this directly impacts fleet readiness.

Visits to General Dynamics, Anduril, and Bath signal a push to rebuild capacity, reduce acquisition friction, and move toward a commercial-first approach that prioritizes speed, innovation, and accountability.

Let's hope this visit sparks a change in the shipbuilding industry.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth will visit Electric Boat in Quonset on Monday, Feb. 9.Stay in the know with WPRI 12 News. Local news, weather, sports, and ...

China’s expanding naval power is forcing the U.S. Navy to rethink future warfighting and force design.

The response isn’t just more ships; it’s accelerated investment in next-generation capabilities and just how fast ideas become operational. This requires industrial readiness, disciplined ex*****on, and trusted data. That’s where GES can step in; turning complex naval and undersea innovation into operational reality.

So, which emerging capability do you think will shape naval operations most in the next decade?

The Naval Nuclear Submarine and Aircraft Carrier Suppliers Conference connects Navy leaders, shipbuilders, and industry partners to tackle supply chain challenges across the Virginia, Columbia, and Ford class programs. With insights on NDAA priorities, construction plans, and industry alignment, this event drives collaboration that strengthens capacity, capability, and fleet readiness.

Although this year's conference is postponed to December of 2026, it is must-attend forum for advancing collaboration between government and industry and strengthening the future of U.S. naval shipbuilding!

At GES, we don’t just advise, we roll up our sleeves and work alongside plant leadership to drive operational transformations that deliver real, measurable results.

Our team brings decades of experience in designing and implementing advanced steel processing and fabrication lines. From cutting-edge CNC and robotic systems to complete panel line integrations, we’ve led modernization efforts that support both commercial and defense sectors.

Some of our team’s most impactful projects include:

♦ CNC Plate Cutting & Beveling Lines
Delivered 3X throughput, 50% cycle time reduction, and 65% cost savings per part.
♦ Robotic T-Beam & Profile Cutting
Scaled weekly output from 400 to 1,800 parts, with ROI realized in under 3 years.
♦ High-Tech Panel Line Deployment
$90M implementation focused on throughput, repeatability, and unmatched quality.
♦ Global Defense Collaboration
Concept development for next-gen submarine steel processing facility.
♦ OEM SME Partnerships
Supporting industry leaders in transitioning from aluminum to steel and improving process performance.

And we don’t stop at equipment. GES takes a holistic approach to production performance.

Our team has worked directly with plant leadership to identify and resolve the systemic issues affecting:

→ Production Planning & Scheduling
→ Non-Conformance Root Cause Analysis
→ Bottleneck Identification
→ KPI Reporting & Ex*****on Gaps

We then built a targeted improvement roadmap centered around what matters most: Safety, Quality, Delivery, and Cost.

The results:
✔ Increased throughput and velocity
✔ Improved schedule adherence
✔ Better WIP and inventory control
✔ More efficient use of labor and resources
✔ Stronger customer trust
✔ Tangible ROI—often exceeding 2X return
