Now,
RENK is delighted to receive the award as ‘2014 Littoral Ship
Program Supplier of the Year’ from the Lockheed Martin LCS industry
team. RENK feels greatly honored by this prestigious recognition as
the continuous effort in timely supply of the gear products as well
as strong on-site support for the shipyard Marinette Marine Corporation
is highly valued by this award. RENK is well aware of its role as key supplier to the Lockheed Martin LCS team. Based on the long term expertise and experience in manufacturing high end quality main transmission gears, clutches and controls as well as in providing premium through life service support, RENK will do its utmost to continue to ensure the success of the LCS program over the whole life time of the propul-sion power train. The supplier award from Lockheed Martin, one of the world’s leading defense groups, is also appreciated as confirmation of RENK’s continuously growing reputation in the US naval market. Since the successful starting point of RENK’s activities back in 2004 for the United States Coast Guard, culminating in the delivery of main reduction gears for eight ship sets of the National Security Cutter (NSC), RENK was able to affirm its presence in the US with further con-tract awards and numerous project support to governmental institutions and shipyards. RENK reaffirms its appreciation for this award and thanks Lockheed Martin for the continued trust as base of the strong business relationship we share today. |
