Who

We

Are...

Industries and Sectors

Lariix’s unique perspective, experience and transferable skills support a range of sectors including Defence Maritime and Nuclear, Critical and Major Infrastructure Development and wider Government.

Defence Maritime

The Defence Maritime sector is changing at its fastest pace since the end of the Cold War, as it adapts to autonomy and hybrid operations. With urgent security challenges, long-term strategic priorities, and continuing funding pressures, capability decisions must be clear, balanced, adaptable and enduring.

Lariix helps clients develop cost-effective solutions to new challenges by creating robust concepts and requirements, then advocating their importance through scrutiny and assessment. Our embedded knowledge, proven techniques and long-standing stakeholder relationships across the enterprise help drive projects forward.

Lariix has built a reputation for providing expert advice, speaking frankly and constructively, and supporting major investment decisions across the Maritime and Joint domains.

It is a partnership between the Ministry of Defence and industry, with MOD customers in the Defence Nuclear Organisation, Royal Navy, Submarine Delivery Agency and Atomic Weapons Establishment supported by Tier 1 partners including Rolls-Royce, BAE Systems and Babcock International. The DNE represents the largest single investment in UK Defence.

Lariix brings more than 30 years of experience at the heart of the DNE, including Royal Navy Submarine Service during the Trident era, MOD organisational transformation, design support for Dreadnought and SSN-AUKUS submarines, deterrence policy, warhead targeting and effects, and strategic command and control.

Defence Critical Infrastructure is essential to national security. It includes physical and digital assets whose protection, resilience and continuity underpin military effectiveness and national readiness. Security forms an intrinsic component of DCI, including physical, information, personnel and intelligence.

Lariix has led the development of effective strategies combining threat assessment, risk management and sector-specific interventions to evolving threats, to maintain mission assurance and protect Defence operations at the heart of UK Defence policy.
