Products & Solutions
Engineering Services
End-to-end safety and reliability engineering support for aerospace and defence programmes, covering RAMS analysis, integrated logistics support (ILS), aircraft cybersecurity, software assurance (DO-178), hardware assurance (DO-254), airworthiness certification and model-based systems engineering. Anzen's engineers embed into customer programmes from concept through certification, serving OEM and Tier-1 programmes across fixed-wing, rotorcraft, UAS, eVTOL and space applications.
ATICA4Capella
A model-based safety analysis (MBSA) plugin that extends Capella, the open-source MBSE tool, allowing safety and reliability analysis to be performed directly within system architecture models. Core capabilities include functional hazard analysis (FHA), fault tree analysis (FTA) with probabilistic cut-set calculation, FMEA, Markov analysis from state machines and a reliability prediction framework supporting MIL-HDBK-217 and FIDES standards. The base plugin is available free for evaluation, with commercial add-ons for FTA and advanced failure propagation modules.
About
Anzen Engineering was founded in Madrid in 2019 by four former Airbus engineers — Pablo de la Cruz, Víctor Moyano, Daniel García and Jesús Escudero — with a mission to help aerospace and defence programmes meet rigorous safety certification standards. The company has grown entirely without external investment, reaching €6 million in revenue in 2025 with projections nearing €9 million for 2026 and a team of over 80 engineers across five offices in Spain, Switzerland, Germany, the United States and the UAE.
