FEL - Services

Even the most experienced procurement executives admit that with the contraction of defence based industries worldwide, the acquisition & absorption of manufacturing outlets into impersonal conglomerates with the resulting loss of expertise & records & the ever present problem of product obsolescence, locating & securing a source for support spares becomes increasingly difficult, involving a large investment in time & manpower resources. FEL's unique focus on that market sector & it's relationships with the defense contractors community ensures that the customer will receive continued support, expertise & satisfaction.

A major factor contributing to FEL's ability to deliver it's service, is it's extensive range of support spares held in stock, over 90,000 individual items being carried as standard.

FEL has a vast & diverse product capability, which allows the company to fulfill most needs, this capability ranges from resistors & capacitors to power components, from board level products to microwave components, from crystal products to switches, from connectors to inductors and much, much more.

Within the last 5 years, FEL has focused on ex Plessey (Siemens Plessey/Thomson Airsys/Thales ATM) as being a core element of its business.  The "Watchman" system being a major part of that business strategy.  FEL would like to summarise capabilities in this field and they are as follows:
