Obsolescence is a big deal
Electronics obsolescence is common in sectors such as Defense, where equipment has long lead times and needs to be supported for many decades. It’s not unusual that 70-80% of the electronic components are obsolete before the system has been deployed.
GCI is a solutions provider
GCI designs, develops, and manufactures form, fit, and function drop-in replacement electronics that can be seamlessly integrated into a larger electronics system as required. The replacement electronic components work identically to the original obsolete components.
Supporting Legacy Systems
GCI’s engineering team has decades of experience designing electronics. Our proprietary and proven technologies provide the building blocks to engineer custom electronic solutions based upon the customer needs and requirements.
These drop-in replacement solutions for obsolete CCAs and microcircuits improve DoD system readiness, solving the DMSMS issues associated with lifecycle sustainment.
Combating Counterfeits
GCI only uses components from authorized, franchised distributors with full traceability. This removes any possibility of counterfeit parts entering the supply chain with GCI’s solutions. Memories and FPGAs, particularly the obsolete families, are some of the commonly identified counterfeits for military customers as reported through GIDEP.
GCI’s strict adherence to franchised suppliers eliminates this risk.
