Engagement History

Every room we’ve briefed, on the record.

On symposium floors, in prime briefings and demonstrations, and in direct engagement with Defense leaders, commercial industries, state stakeholders and municipalities, fuel efficiency and operational endurance keep coming up as the need in the room. This page is that record.

What they asked about

KBR

Briefed on the fuel burden of generator fleets and heavy vehicles supporting operations across the CENTCOM theater (United States Central Command). Interest expressed in on-demand fuel production as a way to extend endurance and reduce fuel demand at deployed sites.

Leidos / Dynetics

Discussed as an add-on for next-generation autonomous ground vehicles that still run combustion engines: producing fuel on the move so the vehicle stays on mission longer without growing its logistics tail.

Oklahoma National Guard / FIRO

Innovation-cell discussions with the Oklahoma Army National Guard, through its Force Integration Readiness Officer, on how a pilot retrofit of existing Guard vehicles would be structured. Benefits, fuel savings and efficiencies would be measured in the field before any wider decision.

Selected organizations engaged: presented to, briefed or pursued. Descriptors summarize the interest expressed to DFGD in those briefings. They are not contracts, endorsements or validated performance.
02 — On the Map

Where the work happens.

Rooted in the Lawton / Fort Sill Fires ecosystem, working manufacturing growth in Duncan and state-government pathways in Oklahoma City, with expansion planning underway in Roswell, New Mexico.

On the Record

From first briefing to structured follow-up.

03 — On the Floor

Where the pathways started.

Symposiums and trade shows are where engagement begins. DFGD works the floor, then runs structured follow-up campaigns segmented by military, government, industry and network contacts.

  1. FIRES / Field Artillery & Air Defense Symposium: static display and segmented follow-up campaign

04 — Proof of Execution

Systems that follow through.

The DFGD operating funnel

Engagement → Pilot → Data → Portfolio Alignment → Scale. Every opportunity has an owner, a status and a next action.

The FIRES follow-up campaign

Structured follow-up segmented across military, government, industry and general-network contacts.

The commercial pilot methodology

Select → Baseline → Install → Operate/Monitor → Measure → Review, the protocol behind every fleet pilot.

The New Mexico expansion model

Manufacturing, JTIP workforce reimbursement, LEDA infrastructure and veteran workforce integration, connected as one model.

The Duncan manufacturing work

Facility layout, training curriculum, apprenticeship concepts and production-support systems.

Where the engagement led

Meet us on the record.

At a symposium, a briefing or a demonstration. Every engagement gets structured follow-up, an owner and a next action.
