March 31, 2008 by Jeff Shepard

RO Associates Inc. (ROA) a subsidiary of EMRISE Corp., a designer, manufacturer and marketer of proprietary electronic devices and communications equipment for aerospace, defense, industrial, and communications applications, announced that it has received a $300,000 follow-on order from a major military systems integrator for power supply products for a ground-support program for U.S. military vehicles.

ROA manufactures and markets predominantly commercial power supply products. These orders are said to reflect ROA’s increasing penetration into the military and aerospace markets.

EMRISE President and Chief Executive Carmine T. Oliva said, "This strategic program for U.S. military vehicles is a major, long-running program, so we expect orders to continue. We also believe the flow of orders from this military systems integrator reflects ROA’s growing stature and increasing presence in the military and aerospace markets."

EMRISE subsidiaries – ROA in the U.S., and Pascall Electronics Ltd. and Xcel Power Systems in England – offer a range of military, aerospace and commercial electronic devices including power supplies, RF devices and integrated sub-system products. It is claimed that the combined technology and capability of this group of three EMRISE electronic device companies is now supporting broader penetration by all three subsidiaries into the U.S. and European markets.

Oliva added, "We feel that the resources of these three EMRISE subsidiaries offer excellent technology and product capabilities similar to larger U.S. and European electronic device companies, which helps to set them apart from many smaller U.S. and European companies in the industry."
