survivability partnership through which we can supply products for vehicles as well as complete survivability solutions, whether they involve metallic, composite, or ceramic components, or a combination of all.
“ JAL’ s assets are a key capability driver for us, offering our customers a strong supplier and solution provider able to deliver the complete survivability package. Following the acquisition, its vehicle integration, spares, and through-life support services seamlessly merged into our VSSS business. Additionally, the acquisition boasted different product lines that we did not have before, particularly in the realm of civilian armored vehicles like the Land Cruiser fleets, especially the 200 and 300 series. Thus, acquiring JAL has provided us with fresh product lines and capabilities in a lighter class of vehicles with which we were previously not involved. The acquisition has also introduced us to a range of new customers and contracts in
regions such as Belgium, Sweden and Canada,
enabling us to broaden our customer base,”
James elaborates.“ Six years ago, we managed one large vehicle customer, and we are now managing approaching 20,000 platforms, in part due to the acquisition but also due to winning the Conventional Vehicle Systems, Spares and Post Design Services( CVSSP) with the UK MOD.”
