United Technologies Corp., American concern, whose last year sale reached 54.3 billion dollars, is going to build the aerial innovation’s centres in Poland. In fact, final decisions are to be made in the near future.
The investments we talk about are worth millions of dollars and involve orders for laboratories, research groups in the leading universities of technology, subsequently, technological services‘ export.
American conglomeration (besides aviation, it deals with fire protection and security systems, as well as cranes, lifts and communicative devices) whose income in 2010 was 4.4 billion and which employ over 200 thousand specialists in 71 countries, was satisfied with business being done in Poland. Consequently, it aspires to bring the cooperation to the higher level.
In fact, the companies from UTC group already constitute the country potentates. PZL Mielec – Sikorsky Aircraft constructs Black Hawk helicopters, WSK from Rzeszów produces aircraft propulsions, Pratt&Whitney Kalisz supplies engine components, PZL Wrocław- Hamilton Sundstrand deals with hydraulics’ elements, as well as navigation systems.
HS Rzeszów provides auxiliary engines for aeroplanes. Polish factories of American corporation employ nearly 9 thousands employees and, so far they have invested about million dollars in building production base. Yet, rising resources of UTC’s aerial companies in the country can be compared to the potential of biggest Polish arm holding company, namely Bumar.
-Together with Americans we have built the foundations of modern industry related to aviation. Now, it is high time to stabilize UTC’s position in Aviation valley, Poland. We persuaded the concern’s managers that it is worth to create development background in Poland for the entire branch - says Marek Darecki, the president of WSK Rzeszów, which is the biggest factory in Polish concern family, and co-author of aviation’s industry cluster in Podkarpacie. Aviation valley is already a power: 92 companies, 23 thousands employees, 1.5 billion dollars of annual export of parts and components for Boeing, Airbus and other global aviation potentates.
We have signed a contract for the design and expansion of National Road No. 25 on the section between Zbiersk and Kokanin. The contractor, Strabag, has 39 months from the signing date to complete the project, which is valued at PLN 484,134,160.50.
