New Strategic Alliance
Gulf Aviation Academy, Bahrain
Westminster Group Plc (AIM: WSG), a leading supplier of managed
services and technology-based security solutions worldwide, is
pleased to announce that has entered into a Strategic Alliance
Agreement with the Gulf Aviation Academy of Bahrain ('GAA') for the
provision of aviation and other specialised training services.
GAA is a leading provider of professional aviation training in
Bahrain and the wider Middle East and North Africa ('MENA') region
offering a comprehensive range of structured training programmes
and courses for all aviation personnel in the industry.
Westminster and GAA have entered into a formal Strategic
Alliance Agreement ('Agreement') under which the parties agree to
combine their individual strengths and explore business
opportunities both within their own markets and jointly worldwide.
This collaboration will cover two areas:
1. Joint Initiative International Training Programmes ('JIITPs'); and
2. Special Joint Programmes ('SJPs').
Under JIITPs both parties will offer each other's training
programmes at their respective training centres and will jointly
market the extensive combined range of courses and services
worldwide.
Under SJPs the parties will endeavour to jointly promote other
products and services beyond training such as airport security
equipment and management programmes.
The Agreement is for an initial period of three years and
nothing in the Agreement prevents either party from continuing to
individually market their own products and services around the
world.
Commenting on the Strategic Alliance Westminster's Chief
Executive Officer, Peter Fowler, said:
"I am delighted to be able to announce this Strategic Alliance
with the Gulf Aviation Academy as they are an impressive and highly
professional aviation training organisation and their wide range of
courses is complimentary to and further expands the extensive range
of courses already offered by Westminster.
"The International Civil Aviation Organisations ('ICAO') has
just 35 registered Aviation Security Training Centres ('ASTCs')
worldwide authorised to run ICAO certified courses, of which the
GAA academy in Bahrain is one.
"This initiative is a further enhancement to our recently opened
Training Centre in the UK.
"The Strategic Alliance is an exciting development for both
Westminster and GAA, greatly expanding our range of services to
existing and potential clients. It opens up new markets and
business opportunities for both companies as well as increasing the
capacity for the delivery of ICAO and International Air Transport
Association ('IATA') courses through ASTC registered trainers in
both Arabic and English."
Commenting on the Strategic Alliance GAA's Chief Executive
Officer, Capt. Dhaffer Al Abbasi, said:
"Joining hands with the world-renowned Westminster Group opens
up an array of opportunities, further extending our reach and
offering our clients jointly enhanced programs to meet and exceed
expectations."
