Marshall, Tech Mahindra to Explore Aerospace and Defense Collaboration
September 2, 2024 | MarshallEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
Marshall and Tech Mahindra, a leading global provider of technology consulting and digital solutions to enterprises across industries, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to identify and develop opportunities to work together across the aerospace and defense domains.
The MoU paves the way for joint participation in aircraft design and manufacture, special mission platforms, and the development of digital maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) technologies. Marshall will leverage Tech Mahindra's expertise in data analytics and Intelligent Field Support technologies to deliver actionable insights into the health and usage of its connected infrastructure solutions.
Additionally, Tech Mahindra will engage in advanced design projects focused on the development of future hydrogen fuel systems, aiming to replace fossil fuels and promote sustainability in aviation.
“We are excited to be taking this major step forward with Tech Mahindra. As two family-owned businesses with a global presence and a shared commitment to providing critical support to our customers, we have a lot in common – but we also possess distinct and mutually complementary strengths. “There is ample scope for Tech Mahindra to support Marshall’s ongoing programs, and their global reach and expertise will undoubtedly unlock new use cases and markets where we have not yet established a presence,” said Gareth Williams, Chief Operating Officer, Marshall.
Tech Mahindra and Marshall will harness their unique capabilities to drive growth and innovation in the aerospace market. These capabilities include extensive expertise in aerostructures, electrical and mechanical engineering, airworthiness, and stress test engineering, gained over many years. The partnership will support the expansion of Marshall’s engineering services programs by capitalizing on Tech Mahindra’s strengths in the aerospace engineering sector.
“The aerospace and defense engineering sector faces significant challenges, including the need to drive productivity gains and sustainable technology advancements By combining Tech Mahindra’s global engineering and technology capabilities with Marshall’s rich heritage and specialized knowledge, we are poised to create a powerful partnership to drive innovation and deliver exceptional value to our customers and enable the industry to scale at speed,” said Narasimham RV President - Engineering Services, Tech Mahindra.
With nearly three decades of experience and expertise, Tech Mahindra is a global leader in engineering services for the aerospace industry. The organization works with eight out of top ten aerospace manufacturers and offers innovative solutions for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and aftermarket.

A Designer's Focus on High Density
04/30/2026 | Marcy LaRont, I-Connect007 MagazineVern Solberg is a distinguished member of the Global Electronics Association Raymond E. Pritchard Hall of Fame and has served as chair or vice chair of many committees, developing technical standards and implementation guidelines, including the IPC-7090 series, which focuses on design for manufacturing and reliability for electronic assemblies. He’s a long-time contributor to Design007 Magazine, and he conducted a half-day tutorial at APEX EXPO 2026, where he addressed 2D, 2.5D, and 3D packaging and ultra-high density hybrid bond interconnect. I caught up with Vern at the show and asked about his pivot from addressing more standard design challenges to his focus on high-density circuits.
