OSAT’s corporate experience overview identifies secure-facility acoustic verification, perimeter and door testing, remediation support, retesting and related RF field verification among its project types. The corporate case studies provide the published narratives. This page draws out planning questions rather than duplicating those narratives.
Representative secure-facility experience
OSAT’s published experience includes SCIF acoustic verification, secure perimeter and door testing, defect investigation, remediation support and independent retesting. Its broader corporate record identifies assignments at United States military installations and overseas facilities. To preserve the distinction between public evidence and protected project information, this page summarizes testing lessons; it does not provide room numbers, protected drawings, client-specific security requirements or facility acceptance records.
| Published experience | What it demonstrates |
|---|---|
| Secure-door program encompassing approximately 100 openings | The need for repeatable test identifiers, door-condition documentation and item-level closeout tracking |
| Separate program involving over 60 initially deficient doors, subsequently reported as meeting their required rating after corrective work | Deficiency tracking, coordination of remediation, and retesting against the specified field criterion |
| SCIF perimeter and adjacent-space assessment | Boundary-by-boundary acoustic evidence rather than relying exclusively on laboratory assembly specifications |
| RF shielding field verification | Measurement planning around the specified frequency range, installed interfaces and demonstrable system measurement limits |

Types of evidence delivered
Depending on the project scope, a field verification record can include an agreed test-location register, instrument and field-condition documentation, acoustic frequency-band data and field ratings, RF shielding-effectiveness results by frequency and interface, noted measurement limitations, deficiency observations, and documented retest dispositions. Deliverable format and acceptance criteria are agreed with the authorized project team before mobilization. Neither routine acoustic testing nor an RF shielding test report by itself constitutes accreditation or a TEMPEST determination.
Large door programs: maintain item-level traceability
A program with many openings needs consistent identifiers and a repeatable way to track adjustment, testing and closure. Before fieldwork begins, decide how the door register connects to construction records and how unresolved items remain visible. Ask whether all required openings are covered or whether the contract explicitly permits sampling.
Existing secure rooms: establish the actual condition
A room’s age, continued use or historic acceptance does not by itself describe its current acoustic isolation. Changes to services, doors and adjacent construction belong in the scope discussion. A current assessment should identify what is measured and what remains outside the review.
RF projects: request scope-relevant evidence
A general statement of RF capability does not establish that a proposed measurement system can demonstrate a particular project’s frequencies and attenuation limits. Request an instrument and method schedule relevant to the requirement, and confirm what comparable experience can be discussed through an approved channel.
These are planning lessons, not new case studies or claimed results. No new RF performance result, client relationship or project location is asserted here. References and additional experience details are subject to confidentiality and publication authorization.
For an initial scope discussion, request testing using unclassified information only. OSAT documents measured performance; the responsible authority makes acceptance and accreditation decisions.
