By: ITT Interconnect Solutions ICS Basingstoke is a preferred supplier to Thales, who formally nominated it to join SC21 in early 2009. British Aerospace (BAe) also provided key support and encouragement to the company throughout the formal recognition process, which reflects the contribution and commitment of its supply chain. Being part of SC21 gives ICS the opportunity to network with other leading companies in the aerospace, defense and security sector; and to participate in a coordinated effort to improve the industry’s overall supply chain. The network also provides the opportunity for ICS and other SC21 companies to learn of the latest developments in the sector at an early stage. To maintain their Silver Accreditation, SC21 companies must undergo an annual re-accreditation process and demonstrate continuous improvement in business practices, manufacturing practices, quality and on-time delivery. “Achieving supply chain improvement is crucial to the continued success in not only the UK aerospace and defense industry, but in all industries,” The formal presentation conferring SC21 accreditation on the company will take place at the SC21 Task Force meeting in November in Blackpool and will be attended by representatives from the UK Ministry of Defence, Airbus, British Aerospace, Thales, Bombardier, GE Aviation, Lockheed Martin UK and Rolls-Royce.
