Nashua Firm Receives DOD Contract

Nashua-based ARC Technology Solutions has been awarded a contract by the Department of Defense (DoD) to develop multiple Test Program Sets (TPS) and Interface Test Adapters (ITA). ARC will develop these items for use on their own Mixed Signal Automated Test (MSAT) system, which will allow the DoD to efficiently test and troubleshoot a variety of assemblies on a common platform. The FAA has also chosen the MSAT system.

We are excited that our MSAT system has been selected as the platform of choice for the DoD, said Ken Collins, president of ARC. The MSAT will expand the DoD's testing capabilities by shortening test development time and improving hardware and software standardization. While helping the DoD control their future test development costs, the MSAT will also greatly reduce their test department sustainment costs.
