This collaboration aims at offering a wider range of aerospace services to the Indian market, at the time when the various defence procurement projects of the Indian Ministry of Defense are at a final stage.
Assystem’s long experience in setting up assembly and/or manufacturing processes would be greatly complemented by MPP’s expertise in design, manufacturing, delivery and testing services on parts and tools. Together they offer the capacity to support the building of a new production unit at world-class standards in India.
This first MoU is intended towards leading to an enlarged collaboration aimed at supporting European OEMs (civil and defense) while increasing their international footprint. Alongside Assystem, MPP will thus provide valuable offset opportunities in India and offer a robust and comprehensive support solution addressing global markets.
The MoU was signed by Mr. Dominique Louis, Chairman, Assystem and Mr. David Bradley, Executive Vice President of Aero Space Engineering at Assystem and Mr. Gautam Maini, Executive Director, Maini Group and Mr. Naresh Palta, Chief Executive Officer, Maini Global Aerospace, in the presence of Dr. C.G. Krishnadas Nair, Hon. President, SIATI, Mr. Sandeep Maini, Chairman, Maini Group and other distinguished invitees including many customers from overseas.
Both companies believe that their collective customers are looking for global end-to-end solutions right from design to manufacturing, and both parties, with their complementary strengths, would allow this collaboration to deliver added value beyond customer expectations.
