HERC SOLUTIONS HOSTS INDUSTRY DAYS TO EXPAND NETWORK OF C-130 SUPPLIERS

February 4th, 2005 : Abbotsford, BC (News Release)
Building upon our ‘best practices’ corporate teaming philosophy, Herc Solutions, a leading-edge provider of C-130 Hercules aircraft support solutions is hosting a series of ‘Industry Day’ meetings to expand the network of Canadian C-130 suppliers.

Herc Solutions is working to identify and partner with Canadian aerospace support suppliers with C-130 expertise to provide the highest possible value to the Crown, as it develops its proposal to become the provider of Hercules aircraft support services to the Department of National Defence in response to their recent Request for Proposal.

“We are committed to teaming with proven, leading-edge aerospace support suppliers utilizing best business practices, innovative technologies and performance processes that continually drive quality, cost reduction and efficient span times for our customers”, said David Schellenberg, President of Cascade Aerospace Inc. “Our goal is to provide C-130 support solutions that exceed customer requirements.”

Herc Solutions has organized a series of Industry Day meetings next week, in Halifax, Montreal, Winnipeg and Calgary, to meet and identify potential C-130 suppliers and form new business partnerships. 

“Our Industry Day initiative is representative of our ongoing business strategy of consistently building our aerospace support capacity to provide on-time, on-quality, on-budget delivery of reliable aircraft to our customers”, said Schellenberg.  “It just makes sense to identify and partner with other ‘best practices’ companies to expand our service offerings to customers in a one-stop corporate format focused on achieving measurable quality and efficiency.”

Herc Solutions is a commercially competitive C-130 engineering and maintenance organization structured for the specific purpose of leveraging leading-edge ‘best practices’ to realize extraordinary value to customers.  Led by prime contractor Cascade Aerospace, Herc Solutions is the integration of four major, global aerospace service companies that includes Marshall Aerospace, Derco Aerospace and Standard Aero.  Herc Solutions is headquartered at Cascade Aerospace’s state-of-the-art, 250,000 square foot, purpose-built maintenance facility in Abbotsford, British Columbia.
