GE Medical and Tekdata: A long-lasting business relationship

Tekdata enjoyed considerable success working with the GE Healthcare/GE Medical systems in the UK in the late 80s/early 90s. We designed all the cable assemblies for a range of whole body and heart scanners.

The original designs have since been superseded with new brain and body scanners. However we continue to supply service parts to maintain a worldwide installation of almost 2,000 scanners. In the late 90s, Tekdata also worked on a Black Belt project to increase the MTBF from 2.7 years to 7+ years, focussing on the complex Detector Head harnesses, which was achieved successfully.

As an officially appointed "Strategic Supplier" to GE Medical,
Tekdata's approach to quality is strongly influenced by the Six Sigma concept.
