> Refurbishment
Refurbishing equipment after use in theatre was never given priority status when military funds were in abundance.
Purchasing strategy was usually based upon procurement of the cheapest equipment to do the job in hand, based upon the lowest bid without any consideration to build quality and whole life costing.
Military spending cuts have changed this mind set, forming a new strategy at a quality level that can be sustained after deployment and made ready for redeployment economically.
Rubb have been providing a professional refurbishing and recertifying service to the RAF for the past 15 years.
