The challenges in the land domain of the defence sector are as varied as they are critical. Equipment used on the ground—ranging from armoured vehicles to communication systems—must withstand extreme environments, from scorching deserts to freezing mountain regions. These systems must be robust, durable, and easy to operate, regardless of whether they are used by newly enlisted personnel or seasoned soldiers.
Delivering cost-effective solutions without compromising quality or durability.
Ensuring that equipment functions optimally under all weather conditions and in various terrains.
Designing systems for long-term maintainability and reparability, often for service lifetimes of up to 40 years.
Providing documentation that is comprehensible to users of all experience levels.
Ensuring seamless integration with existing FMV and Swedish Armed Forces infrastructure.
Through an in-depth understanding of both customer and end-user needs, combined with extensive experience in defence sector projects, Svekon takes a holistic approach to solving these challenges. Our team, comprising experts with backgrounds in the Armed Forces, FMV, and defence industries, is well-equipped to handle complex projects from inception to completion. We adhere to FMV’s established processes to achieve System Objectives (SMS), Operational Commitment Specifications (VÅS), and Technical Specifications (TS).
From initial needs analysis (SRR) to final delivery, Svekon follows well-defined project steps, including requirements specification, concept development, design reviews (PDR and CDR), and Integrated Logistics Support (ILS). We focus on ensuring all systems meet defined requirements through thorough verification and validation (VoV), while maintaining continuous communication with the customer to ensure alignment with their vision and operational needs.
Each project at Svekon is supported by a multidisciplinary team, including project managers, systems engineers, technical documentation specialists, mechanical and electronics engineers, and supply chain experts. This diversity ensures that we can handle all aspects of a project in-house, from concept to fully realised product.
Svekon complies with FMV’s Operational Guidelines (VHL) and other relevant standards and regulations, such as the Systems Safety Handbook and FMV’s publication guidelines. This ensures that our solutions are not only technically robust but also legally compliant and safe for use in military operations.
Throughout the project, Svekon manages all administrative tasks, including liaising with the Armed Forces and FMV, conducting testing, overseeing subcontractors, budgeting, and delivery coordination.
Since 1971, we at Svekon have successfully completed thousands of projects, and our team of engineers possesses an impressive collective experience in product development. Feel free to take a look at some of our references, and don’t hesitate to contact us if something catches your interest!
In the land domain, customers benefit from Svekon’s ability to deliver tailored solutions that meet the unique technical and system requirements of defence applications. Our extensive experience and expertise in FMV’s processes ensure that projects are managed efficiently with high-quality outcomes. We identify risks early, enabling smooth project planning and proactive mitigation of potential challenges.
