TEKONF strengthens defence offering with major FMV framework agreement
TEKONF AB has been awarded a framework agreement by the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) for the supply of maintenance systems for small-calibre weapon systems. The agreement, awarded together with partner Svensk Borstteknik, has a total value of approximately SEK 350 million and includes deliveries to FMV, the Swedish Armed Forces, the Swedish Police Authority and other government agencies.
The award represents an important milestone in TEKONF’s continued growth within the defence sector and further strengthens the company’s position as a trusted supplier of integrated solutions for mission-critical applications.
“We are proud to have earned FMV’s confidence. This agreement reflects the strength of our organisation, our technical expertise and our ability to deliver complete solutions that meet the demanding requirements of the defence sector. Together with Svensk Borstteknik, we expect to deliver more than one million items during the first contract year alone,” says Göran Wärdell, CEO of TEKONF AB.
The framework agreement marks the first time TEKONF has been appointed as the principal supplier in a procurement of this scale. It builds on the company’s long-standing experience as a supplier to the defence industry and represents a natural next step in its strategic development.
“For many years, we have supported customers across the defence industry with high-quality products and reliable deliveries. Being selected as the main contractor for a contract of this size confirms that our capabilities and offering meet the highest standards. It is an important step in our long-term commitment to supporting Sweden’s defence capability,” says Göran Wärdell.
