The company said the automatic maintenance systems carry out thousands of operations in order to diagnose the performance of the electronics and software of vehicles, aircrafts or ships, among other platforms. A large part of the equipment is Indra's proprietary development as part of its activity for the past 30 years delivering customized solutions for aircrafts, helicopters and vehicles.
Under the deal, the company will undertake the preventive and corrective maintenance, the periodic calibration of the SAM systems as well as the incorporation of modifications when necessary. The company will also carry out an engineering work by investigating and developing the necessary enhancements to extent the equipment's life span as the platforms are upgraded. In addition to this, it will look after logistics services to supply materials and components as well as training for operators.
In August, the company won a 22-month 25.5m euros ($36.2m) contract from Portugal's Ministry of State and Internal Administration to develop and operate a command and control surveillance system off the Portuguese coast.
