Who We Are

From complexity to clarity.

Orbis is a Washington, DC-based defense and intelligence firm with offices in Canberra and Taipei. Since 2008, we've partnered with the US Government, allied nations, and critical enterprises to accelerate decision cycles, strengthen resilience, and preserve sovereign control. Every engagement is staffed by practitioners who have operated at the mission edge: people who build what they would want to depend on in the field.

Why Orbis

We've done this work. We know what it takes.

Our team comes from the rooms where these decisions get made. Decades of experience across intelligence, operations, and national security, now applied to the hardest problems facing government and industry.

People who've lived the mission

Senior practitioners from the highest levels of government, defense, and industry. Operators who've made the call and engineers who've built the systems that supported it.

Operational judgment

From technology procurement to mission deployment, we've made those calls under pressure.

Proven capabilities

From OSINT to decision support, our capabilities are proven in environments where failure is not an option.

Problems we've already solved

When your problem sounds familiar, that's because we've already solved it.

We built this from the mission. Every capability we ship is held to one standard: does it work when it matters most?
