Uncompromising standards worthy of the defence industry

The Ortec group has worked with the key actors in France’s defence industry for many years, drawing on the expertise of its weapons engineers to respond rigorously to the sector’s stringent requirements all over Europe.
The security context has changed substantially in the last few decades, be it in terms of the framework of international relations, which is moving towards multi-polarity, or the form that conflicts take, which is influenced by technological innovation and terrorism. New realities have emerged, along with a higher level of uncertainty that defence actors must adapt to. As a specialist in technical documentation for the aviation sector, an expert in working in sensitive environments and a top training provider, Ortec is a reliable partner when it comes to supporting defence industry projects both over the long term (R&D projects) and internationally, as part of technology transfer programmes.
