ITAR & EAR Export Control and Compliance Support
Trusted, experienced regulartory and compliance supportGlobal trade compliance support
We combine deep regulatory knowledge with tailored, proactive strategies that safeguard organizations from penalties and operational disruptions.
By applying International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administration Regulations (EAR) export compliance expertise that ensures organizations adhere to U.S. export laws, JHNA’s TSA team helps government agencies and defense contractor clients navigate complex regulations, mitigate risks, and maintain compliance while facilitating secure and lawful international trade to advance the warfighter and mission.
JHNA's TECHNOLOGY AND PROGRAM PROTECTION EXPERTISE
Our approach to export compliance combines deep regulatory knowledge with tailored, proactive strategies that safeguard organizations from penalties and operational disruptions. Our team includes former regulators, legal experts, and defense industry specialists who ensure accurate guidance aligned with government expectations. We assist in policy development, voluntary disclosures, risk mitigation strategies, and ground-up ECP development for full compliance with export control laws.
We have long-standing, trusted relationships with the Office of the Deputy Secretary of the Air Force, International Affairs (SAF/IA), Navy International Programs Office (NIPO), and Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Defense Exports and Cooperation (DASA (DE&C)) that exemplify our ability to navigate export approvals across the DoD. Our experts are experienced in applying complex service and national-level policies in relation to global trade compliance to support the Army, Navy, and Air Force Foreign Military Sales (FMS) programs, cooperative agreements, technology transfers, and Direct Commercial Sales (DCS).
Key Features, Benefits, & Applications
- ITAR & EAR Classification. We accurately classify defense articles and dual-use goods under the U.S. Munitions List (USML) or Export Control. Classification Number (ECCN), ensuring compliance with federal regulations.
- Export Licensing & Compliance Program Development. We streamline the export licensing process and guide the approval process from the Department of State (DDTC) and Department of Commerce (BIS) while implementing robust internal Export Compliance Programs (ECP) that sustain long-term regulatory adherence.
- Export Assessments & Training. We conduct comprehensive internal audits and training programs that identify compliance gaps, prevent violations, and educate personnel on evolving ITAR & EAR requirements.
PROVEN IMPACT
- Defense Contractor Compliance Implementation. Our experts assisted a DoD contractor in developing and establishing an ECP and identifying ITAR-controlled components within a multi-tier supply chain. Our work mitigated risks and secured necessary export approvals to avoid delays in shipment and activities.
- ITAR Audit & Corrective Actions. We conducted an internal compliance audit for a leading defense contractor which led to early detection of potential violations and successful corrective action, avoiding costly penalties and reinforcing ITAR compliance.

JHNA digital engineering EXPERTISE
JHNA's digital engineering process
In the early stages of systems engineering, our work centers around clarifying the end user’s needs and problems, capturing the goals the system is intended to support, and then measuring and evaluating the system's effectiveness in supporting these goals.
Our JHNA consultants do this by documenting the required system functionality, interfaces, physical and performance characteristics linked directly to the goals, and any effectiveness measures documented in our modeling environment. We then capture alternative system solutions by organizing the preliminary system design into modeling components that satisfy the modeled system requirements. This provides a digital environment to compare and contrast solutions that optimize the design and maximize the stated effective measures.
Characteristic of our careful and diligent work, our model based engineering environment maintains traceability from the system goals to the system and component requirements. It is during the system integration and test process, that the verified components are integrated into the system. System test cases are developed and digitally documented to verify the system requirements are satisfied.
The end result is a disciplined system engineering process coupled with digital engineering rigor that produces a well-documented and traceable balanced system solution that satisfies our stakeholder needs.
On-going Support
During the operations and support phase, our JHNA consultants continue to fine tune solutions. We develop fielding plans, assist with system upgrades, develop training programs that optimize system use, and facilitate hardware and software training and integration.
JHNA’s end-to-end system development support ensures the system stays responsive to warfighter needs and within the realm of engineering capability.
