About
Jarrod Poxon, CSM, MBA is a Defence capability specialist with more than 23 years of military and consulting experience. His expertise spans Mission Engineering, autonomous systems, capability development, strategic advisory, modelling and simulation, experimentation and digital command and control.
Jarrod has supported the development of Defence capability concepts, operational frameworks and assurance approaches across Navy, Joint Force and Government environments. He is recognised for his ability to translate complex operational and technical challenges into practical, evidence-based solutions that support informed decision-making and capability outcomes.
As Director of JMO Solutions, Jarrod works with Defence, Government and industry stakeholders to design, validate and operationalise complex capabilities.
The JMO Difference
JMO Solutions is built for organisations that need practical judgement at the point where operational requirements, technical design, evidence and delivery risk meet.
Advice is grounded in operational service, capability development, Mission Engineering practice and direct experience supporting Defence experimentation and assurance activities.
The result is advisory support that is precise, evidence-led and focused on capability outcomes rather than generic consulting outputs.
JMO Solutions brings the practitioner into the room.
Services
Mission concept development, operational analysis, mission thread design and system-of-systems integration support for complex Defence capability programs.
Mission concepts, employment profiles, integration pathways and assurance approaches for autonomous and remotely operated maritime and land capabilities.
Digital command and control advice supporting improved information flow, operational coordination, decision-making and integration across Defence networks.
Modelling and simulation strategy, synthetic environment integration, operational experimentation and evidence generation for capability development.
Objective Quality Evidence design, validation planning, risk reduction and assurance support across the capability lifecycle.
Strategic capability advice, stakeholder alignment, decision support and operational readiness support for Defence, Government and industry stakeholders.
End-to-End Engagement
Mission Engineering done well does not stop at the methodology. Defence and Government capability programs often break down between strategy and engineering, concept and validation, documentation and operational effect. JMO Solutions helps close those gaps with clear analysis, practical mission design and evidence-based assurance.
Capability needs analysis, operating concepts, stakeholder alignment and strategic fit with policy, governance and delivery constraints.
Mission concept development, use-case design, operational thread mapping, and system-of-systems integration analysis.
Synthetic environment integration, scenario exploration, exercises, war gaming, capability stress-testing, and mission rehearsal.
Objective Quality Evidence design, validation planning, assurance reporting, readiness evidence and executive briefings.
The same practitioner can support the work from concept through evidence, reducing handoffs and preserving operational context through each phase.
Experience
Selected areas of delivery across Mission Engineering, autonomous systems, modelling and simulation, digital command and control, and capability assurance.
Mission Engineering Capability Development
Established Navy's Mission Engineering capability for Remote and Autonomous Systems, supporting the integration, assurance and operationalisation of complex Defence capabilities.
Maritime Autonomous Systems
Developed representative missions for Remote and Autonomous Systems in the synthetic environment, supporting operational analysis, experimentation and capability development.
Modelling and Simulation Strategy
Writing lasting strategic documentation supporting the future application of modelling and simulation across Navy capability development, experimentation and decision-making activities.
Objective Quality Evidence and Capability Assurance
Development of evidence-based validation approaches that support capability assurance, risk reduction and informed decision-making throughout the capability lifecycle.
Digital Command and Control
Support to Defence organisations in the design and integration of digital command and control approaches that improve information flow, decision-making and operational effectiveness.
