TRAINING FOR THE RELENTLESS

We are veteran owned and mission driven to combine real-world operational readiness, with proven firearms techniques and tactical training methods. Our objective is to empower responsible citizens, law enforcement professionals, and military personnel with the skills, mindset, and confidence to protect themselves, their families, their teammates, and their communities effectively.

Air Force Col. John Boyd created the OODA Loop concept; Observe, Orient, Decide, Act - as a decision-making cycle designed for performance under stress. At OODA DEVelopment Solutions (OODA DEV), not only is it our mission to teach individuals this principle, but to also develop a warrior-ready mindset—to stop thinking ‘what if’ and start preparing for ‘what and when.’

"We train individuals to identify viable options quickly, commit to action, and win under pressure. Survival is a win. Protecting your loved ones and others is a win. Neutralizing the threat—that’s a win.” 

— Joe “Dev” De Veaux, Founder / Chief Instructor

Our Place of Worship Security Assessment & Consulting Service is designed to help churches and faith-based organizations develop practical, scalable, and mission-aligned security strategies that enhance safety while preserving a welcoming environment.
