Black Pearl is a portfolio of DevSecOps products and services that supports modern software development and delivery. The platform is anchored by a central development environment that provides the required building blocks for testing, delivery and deployment.
The Black Pearl ecosystem provides commoditized DevSecOps tooling and pipeline component templates, integration infrastructure and compute. Together, these enable fast, cost-effective standup of software factories built on:
This Infrastructure as Code (IAC), cloud-to-edge software development environment gives programs a pre-built, secure, and scalable DevSecOps foundation. It eliminates months of setup—so developers can focus on delivering mission-critical capability at operational speed.
This resilient, always-on DevSecOps platform is built from the Lighthouse baseline. It delivers 99%+ uptime with auto-healing, continuous monitoring, and disaster recovery—so mission-critical software stays secure, reliable, and ready at the speed of the Fleet.
Our experts provide customized training and assistance to mission owners and their teams. This helps them adopt new development tools and deliver results faster to maximize return on investment.

Watch how Black Pearl is transforming software factories with a proven DevSecOps platform.
Black Pearl, with Party Barge and/or Lighthouse, enables customers to create their own software factories. A component of Black Pearl, the Party Barge product is a DevSecOps environment that enables rapid standup of new software factories and provides turnkey, compliant tooling for use throughout the enterprise. As such, Black Pearl is not prescriptive in pipeline structure and is not a software factory.
We provide a foundation of DevSecOps capabilities in a centralized environment that can be accessed via a web-based environment, including:
Turnkey and accredited tooling
Host-level and runtime security, monitoring, and compliance
Logging and metrics
Zero Trust security
Cluster-level and infrastructure-level compliance
Standard interface formats for inter-software factory communications
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Configuration as Code (CaC)
The ability to stand up high-fidelity testing infrastructure in development environments
The ability to stand up common environments at higher classification levels
Expert guidance from seasoned DevSecOps practitioners
We partner with DoD DevSecOps Enterprise Services and software factories to accelerate the delivery of software solutions critical to the mission success of today’s warfighter.
