MAINTENANCE, REFURBISHMENT, UPGRADES & NEW SYSTEMS
In 2020, Galvion secured a second consecutive helmet contract with the Danish Ministry of Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation (DALO) to supply advanced helmet systems, refurbishment services, and a comprehensive life extension program for its existing fleet of helmets. This contract ensures that DALO’s forces receive cutting-edge head protection and continued support throughout the lifecycle of their helmet systems.
The Challenge:
DALO required a reliable and forward-thinking solution for modernizing its fleet of helmets while ensuring the availability and operational capability of older, in-service models. The challenge lay in balancing the integration of next-generation helmet systems with the need to refurbish and upgrade the existing helmets, ensuring they met current and future mission requirements.
The Solution:
Galvion’s approach involved a combination of new product delivery, through-life refurbishment, and life extension services.
2020 Program is a 7-year Framework agreement, with 14-year Spare parts and life extension. New helmets supplied include PDxT and Caiman platform varietals.
