Patriot Taxiway Industries Wins Multi Year Contract to Manufacture Approach Lighting Systems for FAA

Contract includes integration, configuration and testing of major lighting system components

2011-10-06

LOMIRA, WI, October 05, 2011 (Press-News.org) Patriot Taxiway Industries announced today that it has been awarded a contract by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to manufacture Medium Intensity Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Light (MALSR) systems (Contract number DTFAWA-11-C-0094-00017). The MALSR system aids pilots during instrument landing approach to align the aircraft with the centerline of the runway. The agreement is valued up to $11.7 million over the four-year life of the contract.

Patriot will manage and deliver the MALSR Assembly, Integration, and Test program, which includes engineering, production and delivery of approach lighting systems to the FAA's Mike Moroney Technical Center in Oklahoma. Patriot's engineers will work closely with other MALSR component manufacturers to ensure overall operability of the system.

"Patriot Taxiway Industries is well positioned to deliver great service and a quality product with our Veteran based workforce," stated Kevin McDermott, Vice President of Business Development.

Contract work will be accomplished at Patriot's facility in Lomira, WI. Seven full time and three part time positions will be added to the company to perform on this contact. The Wisconsin Manufacturer of LED lighting solutions will add the positions over the next 12 months.

"Patriot Taxiway Industries as a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business appreciates the Federal Aviation Administration's attention to small businesses" stated Steven A. Smits, President of Patriot Taxiway Industries.

Earlier this year, Patriot was awarded Phase II of the FAA contract for the development of Light Emitting Diode (LED) replacement fixture with infrared (IR) emitter to improve the MALSR system. The replacement LED/IR fixture will aid the pilot's ability to identify runways on approach in low visibility due to inclement weather using the aircraft's Enhanced Flight Vision System.
