In-workflow compliance coaching for engineers and defense contractors — turning potential export control violations into coaching moments before controlled technical data is shared improperly.
Engineers collaborate across time zones, with contractors, and with international partners every day. When controlled technical data is shared without authorization, the consequences are severe — criminal penalties, debarment, and loss of export privileges. SideNote coaches your teams at the moment of writing, reinforcing the export control training your compliance program has delivered.
Controlled technical data — including missile guidance specifications — cannot be shared with foreign nationals without proper authorization. Use approved secure channels and verify recipient export eligibility with your Empowered Official.
Developed in collaboration with Big Law export control practitioners, this model reinforces your organization's ITAR compliance standards at the point of communication.
Real-time guidance when employees draft language involving controlled technical data, defense articles, or defense services. Contextual coaching explains why the communication may require authorization — building lasting ITAR awareness.
Identifies references to USML-listed items, controlled technical specifications, and defense-related intellectual property. Coaches employees on proper classification procedures and handling requirements for each category.
Detects when controlled information may be shared with foreign nationals — whether through email recipients, shared workspaces, or collaboration tools — and coaches employees to verify authorization status before proceeding.
Aggregated, anonymized analytics give the General Counsel's office and Empowered Officials visibility into export control risk patterns by program, team, and communication type — enabling targeted compliance investments.
The ITAR model is essential for any organization that manufactures, exports, or brokers defense articles or defense services — from prime contractors and their supply chains to research institutions working on defense-related programs.
Deploy alongside the Core 4 models to extend protection to your engineering, program management, supply chain, and business development teams — the people most likely to handle controlled technical data in daily communications.
