ITAR and EAR export licensing, DDTC brokering, and compliance advisory for governments, militaries, and qualified international organizations.
Every engagement is structured around a specific authorization requirement or compliance objective. We execute the work — not just the recommendation.
Full-cycle ITAR and EAR license applications — jurisdiction determination through authorization and post-shipment compliance.
Broker registrations and facilitation of controlled technology transfers between qualified international parties.
Foreign Military Sales support and Direct Commercial Sales facilitation for allied government procurement programs.
Export Control Program design, ITAR/EAR training, classification systems, and audit-ready documentation.
Strategic investment and operational advisory for defense-adjacent companies navigating regulated markets at scale.
All engagements begin with a confidential intake and end-user review.
The technology may be ready. The partner may be qualified. The market opportunity may be real. But without the right authorization structure, none of it moves. That is where SSG comes in.
ITAR and EAR requirements create barriers that delay or prevent legitimate international sales and technology transfers — even to allied partners.
Not knowing whether your technology falls under the USML or CCL — and at which category — creates legal exposure, delayed deals, and regulatory risk.
Poorly structured applications, incomplete end-user documentation, or misclassified items cost time, relationships, and competitive position.
Facilitating the transfer of controlled technology between foreign parties without DDTC broker registration exposes principals to criminal liability.
Advisory recommendations without implementation leave organizations with policies that read well on paper but fail when a real transaction is on the table.
Venture-backed defense and dual-use companies need export compliance infrastructure, government relationships, and operational depth — not just capital.
Too many advisory firms leave clients with classification opinions and compliance recommendations that never result in an approved license. SSG was built for the work that starts after the legal memo ends.
We help organizations build the authorizations, controls, documentation, and relationships required to move controlled technology to qualified international partners.
SSG is structured around authorization outcomes, not generic advisory categories. We solve the regulatory problems that stand between your technology and your partners.
