Working documents from our own practice, written for the people who have to run the program after the consultant leaves. No sign-up wall on the ideas, just a name and an email so we know who we are sending it to.
Start here if you are standing up a drone capability, or if you already have one and are not certain it would survive an audit.
Programs rarely fail on flying skill. They fail because nobody wrote the policy, only one person was qualified, the data had no retention rule, or the aircraft was funded once and never again. Every one of those is visible on paper before it is visible in an after-action review. Score all 46 lines across the eight domains that decide whether a program produces defensible results, marking each one not started, in progress, or in place.
It closes with a defensible first ninety days, ten questions worth putting to any vendor before you buy, and a plain-language glossary for the non-aviation people who have to sign off. Lines that apply only to government or only to commercial operators are tagged as such.

Resources we are building next. Ask for one by name and it moves up the queue.
A condensed study path to the FAA remote pilot knowledge test, built from what actually shows up on the exam and what candidates keep getting wrong.
A working spreadsheet for the build versus buy decision: aircraft, payload, training, insurance, labor and data processing, over a three-year horizon.
The one-page document every agency and prime asks for first, laid out the way evaluators read it, with guidance on what belongs in each block.
That is the normal result, and it is a good place to start a conversation. Tell us where the gaps landed and we will tell you which ones actually matter first.
