Autonomous Drone Programs Need Change Control Before Fielded Autonomy Scales
Autonomous drone programs need disciplined change control for software, mission rules, safety envelopes, and operator procedures before they scale fielded autonomy into higher-risk operations.
Autonomous Systems Need Handoff Protocols Before They Need More Autonomy
Autonomous drones and unmanned systems need disciplined handoff protocols that define when autonomy transfers authority to humans, how supervisors regain control, and what evidence proves the handoff is safe.
Before You Scale Autonomy, Run an Autonomy Readiness Review
Autonomous UAS programs need more than flight demos before they scale. An autonomy readiness review turns safety, human factors, data, software, and operational evidence into a disciplined go/no-go decision.
