The team at Com Dev International Ltd. was honoured to receive a Best Performer Award at the recent Airbus Defence and Space Supplier Conference in Bremen, Germany.
Winning Best Performer at the Airbus Supplier Awards in the commodity area of Ground and Mission Systems is an exceptional achievement, as there are several hundred suppliers who serve this procurement area of Airbus Defence and Space.
This commodity area comprises payload equipment, as well as launchers, missiles and ground infrastructure, earth observation, navigation and science programs, optics and other services.
The Best Performer Award recognizes Com Dev’s top performance results from the most recent Airbus Defence and Space Supplier Evaluation.
