Hardware Activities
Onsite / Onboard activities
Since our establishment we have been specialising in undertaking program management of particular sections of large turn-key projects as well as undertaking combat system integration and delivery.
Combat System Integration (CSI) is the methodical application by experienced specialists of program management and engineering processes to obtain a harmoniously functioning system, resulting from the connection and intermeshing of all subsystems. This is done according to performance specifications, operational requirements and schedule.
The integrator not only integrates subsystems with one another but ultimately integrates the combat system with the platform to obtain a complete system. This means that all the required functions are provided and integrated with respect to logistics, software, hardware, and personnel.
Our particular area of expertise is in the integration of radar, electro-optical sensors and electronic support systems (ESM) with combat management systems including:
- Supervision of Installation
- Setting To Work
- Harbour Acceptance Tests
- System Integration Tests
- Sea Acceptance Trials
- Live Firing Trials

Overhaul / Upgrade Activities
In order to maintain or even improve the functionality of existing equipment while dealing with obsolescence issues it is imperative to properly maintain as well as periodically completely overhaul and modernise equipment.
In our specially constructed flexible facility we have ensured the existence of all required infrastructure as well as specially trained personnel to undertake almost any overhaul, repair or modernisation requirements for defence systems in cooperation always with the original equipment manufacturer. In addition to this we offer complete offsite technical assistance and repair capabilities.
Our complete overhaul / upgrade activities consist of the following:
- Removal & Transportation of the system
- Incoming Inspection
- Equipment Disassembly
- Surface Treatment
- Execution of Repairs / Modifications Application
- Insertion loss and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) Measurements
- Factory Acceptance Tests
- Transportation & Installation

Provision of Integrated Logistic Support Services
Logistic support is one of the largest problems facing the modern day defence industry and Armed Forces. As product ranges increase and technology is continuously updated and replaced, it is all the more necessary to ensure users are properly trained, documentation is always up to date and spare parts and technical assistance are always available on tap.
Currently the following services are being provided concerning Thales Nederland’s TACTICOS Combat Management System
- Repair/Warranty
- Spare Parts
- Maintenance
- Training
as well as maintenance for RH Marine Netherlands B.V. (former Imtech Marine and Offshore) Integrated Platform Management System.
