A new force in engineering software is giving aerospace and defense teams a clearer and more secure way to manage complex requirements by turning overwhelming documents into simple, actionable workflows.
San Francisco, CA, December 19, 2025 — Stell Engineering is pleased to introduce a modern requirements management solution created for the people who guide mission-critical aerospace and defense programs. The platform reflects years of hands-on engineering experience and was built to simplify demanding documentation while helping teams stay aligned from the start of a project to the finish.
Stell’s software begins with a simple idea. Requirements should not overwhelm the engineers responsible for them. Understanding What Is Requirements Management becomes simple with Stell, which turns lengthy contracts and specifications into interactive, easily navigable compliance matrices. This helps teams to understand what needs verification, what has changed, and what requires immediate attention.
“Anyone who has worked in systems engineering knows how quickly documents can take on a life of their own,” said Zoe Ingram, CTO of Stell. “We wanted to create something that helps teams breathe a little easier. Stell gives engineers a clear picture of their requirements so they can focus on doing great work instead of chasing information.”
Security remains at the center of Stell’s mission. The software is fully developed and operated within the United States and meets strict standards, including SOC 2 Type 2 and NIST 800-171 compliance. It also supports the secure handling of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and maintains an IL5 Authorization to Operate through sponsorship from the U.S. Space Force. Every action inside the platform is recorded to maintain strong audit trails and transparency across projects.
Stell Engineering also helps teams preserve knowledge that might otherwise disappear when staff transitions occur. Compliance strategies, requirement histories, and decision pathways remain available, which supports faster onboarding and smoother project continuity. Engineers can search across manuals, standards, and statements of work within seconds, giving them a clearer understanding of their responsibilities and reducing the risk of missed requirements.
“Teams should be able to open a tool and immediately feel supported, not confused,” said Anne Wen, Co-Founder and COO. “We spent a lot of time shaping Stell to feel natural for engineering teams. If someone can learn it quickly and see value right away, then we know we built it correctly.”
Stell’s Defense Requirements Management Tool is designed for organizations that need clarity, structure, and dependable security. It offers an approachable alternative to rigid legacy systems and replaces a patchwork of spreadsheets and manual workarounds that often slow teams down.
Aerospace and defense leaders who want to strengthen their requirements workflow can explore Stell’s platform to see how thoughtful design and engineering insight come together to support program success.
