Build at Mission Speed
What is MaaS?
Kform Manufacturing As A Service (MaaS) gives defense innovators and prime contractors subscription-based access to a full team of product development and manufacturing experts—for less than the cost of a single full-time engineer.
Unlike traditional service providers or quoting platforms, Kform MaaS is purpose-built for mission-critical projects. It radically compresses development cycles, delivering production-ready prototypes and integrated systems faster than any other manufacturing solution.
Built for Innovators
MaaS is strategic execution at startup speed.
Full Capability
Get cradle-to-cradle execution—mechanical, electrical, prototyping, process development — all under one roof, with industry-leading speed.
Flexible & Scalable
Use the subscription as needed to solve problems. Scale seamlessly from prototype to stable production via long-term supply agreements.
Rapid Response
Designed for rapid demos and OTA timelines, MaaS helps teams meet today’s accelerated requirements without internal staffing bottlenecks.
Unmatched Efficiency
Shave months off development by collapsing the OODA loop with transparent communication and feedback across design, built, and test.
Capabilities
Kform has the broadest capabilities of any engineering and manufacturing service provider in the Nation Capital Region. We are vertically integrated to design and manufacture defense systems.
