Proven in Ukraine. Understood in the West.
Datum prepares the export materials Western buyers and investors expect from Ukrainian defence manufacturers. Datasheets, capability statements, decks and websites, written to the standard procurement teams measure against.
The product is proven. The paperwork isn’t.
Ukrainian manufacturers are designing, testing and improving systems faster than almost anyone. But a Western evaluation starts with documents, long before anyone sees the hardware.
A procurement officer in London, Warsaw or Washington opens a datasheet, a capability statement or a website. If it reads like a literal translation, leaves out the standards and test evidence they look for, or looks like an internal memo, the product is judged by that. Most never get a second look.
Datum closes that gap. We rewrite, restructure and design your materials so a Western reader finds what they need in the order they expect it, in language they trust.
Literal translation
Correct words, wrong meaning. Terminology that reads as amateur to a native technical reader.
Missing evidence
No test data, standards references, certifications or support terms, which are the first things a buyer checks.
Presentation risk
Inconsistent formats and unclear structure signal an unreliable supplier, however good the product.
What we do
Three services, referenced like datums on a drawing. Every engagement starts from A.

How an engagement runs
Fixed scope, fixed price, agreed before any work starts. See the full process
Teardown
You send current materials. We send back a written review, free.
Scope and quote
We agree what to produce, the timeline and a fixed price.
Build
We interview your engineers, collect evidence and write in English and Ukrainian.
Review and deliver
Two review rounds, your export control check, then print-ready and editable files.
Fluent in both procurement cultures.
We work between both languages and both procurement cultures. We know how a Ukrainian engineering team describes its product, and we know what a Western buyer needs to read before they will take a meeting.
That means no agency learning your sector on your budget, and no translator guessing at terminology. Every document is written for a specific Western reader: a procurement officer, a programme manager, a distributor or an investor.
Communications, not arms.
Datum prepares documents and websites. We do not manufacture, sell, transfer or broker defence articles, and we work only from information your export control authority has cleared for release. Confidentiality agreements are standard on every engagement.
Find out what a Western buyer sees first.
