Proof of Work

Selected work and founder contributions | Updated November 12, 2026

See what was done, who did it and what the evidence supports. These examples connect practical learning, strategy and responsible AI with the services DOES offers today.

Workforce engagement: ASME career readiness

Role: Aaron Sneed contributed an industry perspective to ASME’s 2026 Career Readiness in ME & MET webinar for students and early-career professionals.

Completed output: Participation and career-pathway insights. ASME’s October 2, 2026 follow-up thanked the panel for sharing experiences with attendees. This demonstrates speaking and workforce engagement; learner placement, certification and wage outcomes were not measured in this example.

Business strategy: Boston University action learning

Role: DOES sponsored a 2026 Questrom student project on platform strategy for the ASU Medicines initiative. Aaron Sneed supplied the business challenge and industry perspective; the students developed the strategy work.

Completed output: A student-authored platform-strategy study and presentation. The engagement explored a healthcare supply-chain concept. It does not establish an operating medicines factory, regulatory approval or a measured commercial result.

AI workflow development: student proof of concept

Role: Aaron Sneed provided industry input to a Yale student engineering project, keeping student authorship distinct from DOES delivery.

Completed output: A May 2026 Python prototype and final report explored processing test inputs, generating formatted reports, preserving raw files and producing file-hash manifests. The result was an educational proof of concept. Standards-specific calculations, cybersecurity integration and deployment validation remained future work.

This example illustrates workflow design and traceability. It is not a deployed nuclear system, approved inspection method or certification. Explore responsible AI adoption.

Recognition: 2026 Orlando Tech Grant selection

DOES was named among the City of Orlando and Orlando Economic Partnership’s 2026 Orlando Tech Grant recipients. Selection is recognition of the proposed work; it is separate from completed delivery, participant outcomes and customer acceptance.

How we document results

A useful project record identifies the agreed scope, accountable owner, deliverable, review criteria and completion evidence. Quantified improvements also need a baseline, measurement period and calculation method. We publish customer names, photographs and results only when cleared for release.

Drone-component and testing inquiries begin with a scoped evidence plan. Current offerings include structural components and wiring harnesses; DOES scopes and coordinates NDT, NDE and general testing through qualified subcontractors. No customer production or testing outcome is claimed here.
