On Tuesday, April 22, 2008, AASC was presented with an award of recognition from Boeing Huntington Beach for their superior work on the GPS IIF Wire Harnessing.

AASC successfully delivered the completed product by the March 28, 2008 deadline. This delivery marked a major milestone for Boeing, as AASC’s superior quality and timeliness has kept Boeing on schedule and in good standing with their customer.

Special thanks goes to the wire harnessing team: Malcolm Davis, Dan Smith, Phil Freese, Mike Bostwick, Ivan Herbert, Eleanor Ramsey, Nydeth Forrester, Ron Paras, Jim Rosander, and the support team: Anna Shifflett, Dave Ramsey, Debbie Noe, Harry Davis, Oscar Tagorda, Craig Duncan, Bobby Ruelos, Mark Tubre, and Felicitas Ulep.

GPS satellites are used for three basic components: relative movement, absolute location, and time transfer; they provide survey and navigation abilities for both military and commercial applications. The harnessing forms the electrical connections between blackboxes and all of the functional equipment throughout the satellite.
