Marshall Land Systems call on customers, partners and suppliers in Canada
Marshall Land Systems are a project based company and their Canadian Project office team has been visiting Canada to meet their hosts at Armatec - their their partner in their SEV Kitting bid - other partners and key suppliers. They also met with Allen Vanguard, MLS’ partner on the DTAL project, current and prospective customers.
The strong MLS project management team followed on from a recent visit by MLS’ HR and Business Development Directors who were recruiting and interviewing candidates from across Canada who had responded to recent adverts and approaches. MLS Executives also attended the recent DEFSEC Atlantic in Halifax NS where they engaged with National and Provincial Governments.
The project management team will initially be based at the Armatec Facility in Dorchester, Ontario, and during this visit they spoke to some but not all of the many MLS key suppliers. These include Malley Industry, Dieppe NB., the Raydan Division of Link, Edmonton, Alb., and a number of others. The aim is to develop the existing relationships and identify future ones. Other visits will take place when the team settles into its Canadian home.
Commenting on the visit Peter Callaghan Chief Executive Officer of Marshall Land Systems said: “Our relationships with our existing partners have been strengthened by this visit and our project team have been immensely impressed by the skills and commitment of Armatec, Allen Vanguard, Malley and Link. We have had a continuous engagement with Armatec and Allen Vanguard since we partnered with them and have also maintained our links with our supply network.
"Armatec, our hosts, has a commitment to quality, innovative, agile protection solutions similar to our own in our chosen field so we look forward to working with them. We are building on a very strong Marshall presence in Canada and are developing that long term commitment. We were have been delighted by the responses to our adverts and activities”.
Paul Bergqvist Chief Operating Officer of Armatec said “It was a pleasure to greet the project team, meet their spouses and partners, providing them detail of day to day business and social life here in Canada. We have been in discussions over several months with Marshall Land Systems, their attention to detail and commitment to delivery on time, cost and performance is impressive. This visit has been about the detail and administration of how to best meet Marshall Land Systems’ aspiration to build a Canadian company which can deliver Canadian Solutions to the Canadian Market. This visit is a series of steps down that road and a demonstration of that intent.”
