Innovative Solutions for a Developing World

Clean water is now one of the world's most precious commodities, enshrined by many countries as a basic human right. We design and implement tried and tested devices, equipment and systems in large municipal and multi-regional implementations, while at the same time stay on the cutting edge by exploring and testing new technologies - such as air-water generators, nanofiltration systems, entire circular economy programs.

From very-large-scale-integrations, such as the National Communications System for the Government of the Philippines, to industrialization/commercialization of basic research, such as work done for the US TSWG (Technical Support Working Group), Headway USA has decades of design and implementation experience both in the US and internationally.

With an accelerated global population growth exacerbated by consumption habits, there is an immediate need for countries to adopt waste management technologies to mitigate the consequences of climate change. We lead the design and implementation of Waste-To-Energy technologies diverting waste into clean energy with active projects in Asia and Africa. The implementation process we handle includes planning, engineering, procurement, contract management, and funding. 

As early as 2005, in the early days of the War on Terror, Headway worked closely with US TSWG - the "Technical Support Working Group" - which was an interagency cooperation between the Department of State and the Department of Defense, aimed at nurturing new technologies and research findings into viable and deployable systems and solutions, to be delivered to the warfighters and first responders. This entailed taking esoteric R&D items, determining their useful properties, funding their commercialization and deployment, in areas such as: ground-penetrating and building-penetrating radar - for search and rescue and hostile urban environments; computer and software protection systems; algorithms to detect hidden messages and communications, as well as their originating devices; IED early detection systems; total space control and monitoring; and many more.

Subsequently, Headway supported several academic and research institutes in their efforts to commercialize their vast libraries of Intellectual Property. This included the University of Illinois system, National Institute of Standards and Technology, several state government agencies, as well as research bodies outside of the US.
