Building a Global Industrial Consortium for Complex Programs
No single company possesses every capability required to deliver modern maritime, defense, industrial, and infrastructure programs.V D & S is building a formal global industrial consortium of qualified organizations whose products, services, technologies, facilities, workforce, and specialized knowledge can be applied to project opportunities worldwide.The consortium is intended to create a coordinated, dependable, and scalable supply-and-delivery network without requiring every capability to be owned directly by V D & S.
