| Norwegian Defense Logistics Organization Awards Materials Management Program to Pratt & Whitney |
The Norwegian Defense Logistics Organization (NDLO) has signed an agreement with Pratt & Whitney for a Materials Management Program (MMP) to support the Royal Norwegian Air Force's F100-PW-220E engine fleet powering their F-16 aircraft. This marks the first Pratt & Whitney MMP agreement with Norway, and it is structured to support Norway's F-16 fleet readiness objectives for the next four years. Pratt & Whitney is a United Technologies Corp. company.
''We are excited about the opportunity to expand our 30-year relationship with the NDLO and the Royal Norwegian Air Force (RNoAF),'' said Ed O'Donnell, Pratt & Whitney Director of International Programs and Business Development. ''Under this MMP, Pratt & Whitney will provide a comprehensive logistics service program across all levels of RNoAF engine maintenance, including forecasting and delivery of spare parts, as well as part repair management. Our goal is to help Norway achieve the highest levels of serviceable and ready engines in the most affordable manner.''
''We see a service program across all levels that works very well. From the NDLO side, it looks like this will be a success story,'' said Lt. Col. Roy Kristoffersen, Norwegian Defence Supply Management Division.
