Continues A 'Long Standing Relationship' Between The Two
Organizations
The National Research Council of Canada and Bombardier have
signed a multi-year framework agreement covering research,
development and testing in areas of interest to both organizations.
A Memorandum of Understanding signed in 2010 paved the way for this
agreement. This agreement sets the terms for both fee-for-service
and collaborative research projects. Bombardier aims to advance its
research in areas including aerodynamics, computational fluid
dynamics, structures and materials, acoustics, multi-disciplinary
optimization, aircraft interiors and electromagnetic
interference.
NRC and Bombardier Aerospace have previously collaborated on
projects ranging from aerodynamic studies for several Bombardier
aircraft concepts to the development of advanced manufacturing
methods, including automated fabrication of composite aircraft
fuselages. Today’s signing reinforces this mutually
beneficial relationship. Down the road, the two entities say this
agreement will enable Canadian businesses to better compete in an
increasingly global, competitive industry and to provide them with
the potential to create good jobs and growth for Canadian
businesses and workers.
“This agreement continues the long-standing relationship
between our organizations, which will result in more innovative
technology solutions for the aerospace industry,” says Jerzy
Komorowski, Director General of NRC Aerospace “It will also
lead to business opportunities for the suppliers who support the
larger players in the industry and who need to remain globally
competitive.”
“Bombardier is built on a rich heritage of aircraft
innovation that has driven many of our great
accomplishments,” said Jean Séguin, vice president,
quality, achieving excellence system, engineering and
manufacturing, Bombardier Aerospace. “This agreement clears
the way for a continued harmonious and productive collaboration
between the National Research Council of Canada and Bombardier in
areas of technology that are crucial for the aircraft of
tomorrow.”
