Semcon has entered a new framework agreement with GKN Aerospace. The agreement is for services spanning Semcon’s entire offering, such as design, simulation and calculations, software development, and aftermarket solutions.

The aviation and aerospace industries are facing huge challenges, not least in terms of sustainability. With many years of experience and deep specialist knowledge, GKN Aerospace manufactures components for these industries, including launch rockets and the majority of the world’s aircraft engines. This is a field that is constantly under development.

“We are proud of the trust to support GKN Aerospace on their continued journey. Together, we look forward to developing tomorrow's technology that will really make a difference,” says Markus Granlund, CEO at Semcon.

Semcon has a broad offering with expertise in many of GKN Aerospace’s business areas – everything from calculation, simulation and production methodology to digital information solutions for service and maintenance.

“It is gratifying that Semcon's competence and experience from a wide range of industries benefit the aviation and aerospace industry. I am convinced that the collaboration will strengthen both Semcon and GKN Aerospace. The development of new technology is crucial in the transition towards to a more sustainable society,” says Anders Slettengren, Chairman of the Board at Semcon and Executive Vice President, Ratos.

The framework agreement runs indefinitely from December 2022 and includes services in both of Semcon’s business areas: Engineering & Digital Services and Product Information.
