This merger will bring together two complementary organisations with a common vision of a modern and efficient service-oriented system design architecture capability.

RHEA System S.A. is a leading Space Engineering Consulting and Software company, the fastest growing Belgium-based SME, that offers knowledge-based services and innovative proven solutions to the Space industry. RHEA covers activities over the complete life cycle of a programme, starting from feasibility of concepts, to design and mission development, and finally through to mission operations and system maintenance. RHEA teams of system engineers and scientists provide support to clients across Europe, Canada and the USA. RHEA’s combined Space domain expertise and excellence in system and software engineering is both recognised and unique, resulting in highly reliable user-centric solutions.

A main objective today is to support customers in achieving time to market, risk reduction, budget compliancy and increased efficiency throughout a programme. These goals are main drivers in the decision-making process leading to the development of systems and products. Concurrent Design Engineering is one of the major disciplines for achieving these objectives.
