Albacom secures contract with Saab
The contract requires Albacom to manufacture specialist electronic backplane units, essential for the cockpit operations of the aircraft. The scope of work, which is due to commence this month over an eight month period, includes full testing of the equipment and printed circuit board assembly.
Jim Davidson (right), CEO of Albacom, said: “Saab has been a valued customer for over ten years and to have been awarded this work is testimony to our commitment to quality and reliable products. Saab is a globally recognised brand that represents safety, innovation and quality, and we are proud to have this continued association with them.”
Albacom can trace its origins back to the Dundee division of Ferranti and has decades of experience and a strong track record of providing quality products for Ministry of Defence sector clients.
Jim Davidson continued: “I joined Albacom as CEO earlier this year. It was immediately clear to me that Albacom’s level of expertise and commitment to quality is aligned to the needs of other sectors such as oil and gas, and life sciences. Our approach to designing electronic solutions is focused on understanding what the client needs, then designing, manufacturing and fully testing that solution until we get it right. I am very much looking forward to driving Albacom forward to offer our specialist approach, regardless of industry sector.”
Albacom offers products into areas as diverse as offshore oil and gas, ozone generation and induction heating. Its products are deployed in a variety of contexts, including satellite communications, medical electronics, mobile communications infrastructure, test instrumentation and industrial processing.
