Denel signs major orders
13 December 2005
Of late all the hard work Denel has put into its products is finally paying dividends. These last few months have been quite successful months for Denel with the signing of contracts at Denel's Pretoria Metal Pressings (PMP) division and the Naschem division.
Denel's PMP has just received a R36 million order from BAE Land Systems for the delivery of 129 million brass cups. These cups are the first process in the manufacturing of ammunition. In September 2001, PMP achieved a major breakthrough by clinching a 5-year rolling contract with BAE Systems. This order is the fifth annual one under the main contract.
According to Mr Carel Wolhuter, General Manager of PMP, an excellent relationship was maintained with BAE Systems over the past few years, and that they see PMP as a reliable supplier.
Mr Chris Isaacs of BAES Land Systems, who visited PMP for the annual Supervisory Team Meeting between the two companies, acknowledged that PMP's products are of excellent quality. Negotiations are in progress to extend the relationship between PMP and BAES Land Systems for a further five years.
This excellent news is coupled with further positive news that Denel's Naschem division has just received a R30 million multi year order from the SANDF, for the upgrading of their mortar ammunition in stock. Naschem's negotiations with the SANDF on this upgrading programme commenced during the last half of 2005.
The first delivery, to the value of R10 million, will take place at the end of February 2006, with a final delivery to take place by the end of October 2006. According to Mr Dennis Schoeman, acting General Manager of Naschem, this order was made possible due to excellent relations maintained between the company and the SANDF, and Denel's track record as a reputable supplier.
Since this is only one of many orders received by Naschem from the SANDF for the upgrading of ammunition, the company is confident that we will win future orders due to our excellent product and services.
