Irving Shipbuilding Inc. has awarded L3Harris two contracts to supply and install the Integrated Platform Management System and Control & Instrumentation system for the Canadian Surface Combatant (CSC), to be built for the Royal Canadian Navy.
Under these new contracts, L3Harris will design and deliver the Integrated Platform Management System (IPMS), a sophisticated system for managing the ship’s propulsion, power generation and auxiliary. The IPMS is a powerful system that will enhance the performance, reliability and safety of the new combat ships and significantly enhance Canada’s defence industry performance.
The work under these contracts will take place at L3Harris’ Montreal facility and will provide skilled jobs to the region, such as systems engineers, project managers, technicians, quality assurance specialists, procurement and customer support specialists.
Driven by the NSS, this latest supply chain announcement contributes to over $314 million in total contracts and investments delivered to Quebec. It is one more testament to the impact of the NSS and how it is delivering regional economic benefits and fostering Canadian innovation right across the country.
