Iveco's positive response to SDSR

摘要

At the time of writing the SDSR's sword of Damocles hung over the defence marketplace; industry would have to evolve quickly if it was to respond effectively to the anticipated cuts. Increasingly, companies must consider the long game, thinking laterally and innovatively to ensure that the MoD customer gets, and is seen to get, the best value for money both from the existing inventory and from any new procurements.Whilst Iveco Defence Vehicles has historically adopted just such an evolutionary approach to development, the pressures of SDSR have provided further impetus to our development of approaches to optimise the performance of vehicles already in customers' inventories and to exploit further the company's existing product range.
