Peter Dawson President, L-3 Communications MAPPS Inc.

Since the early 70s, L-3 MAPPS' Power Systems and Simulation has been developing simulators and control systems for power plants and, over the years, we have consistently set new standards with its technological advances. Our products range from full-scope simulators to instructional simulators, and we also provide upgrades that can transform legacy simulators into state-of-the-art, regardless of who was the original manufacturer. We are unquestionably the leading supplier of power-plant simulation technology.

Our power-plant simulators are the industry standard for training but they can be used for other applications, including validating and optimizing plant operating procedures and preventing plant outages. We are proud to have contributed to the success of the CANDU program by supplying plant computer systems for CANDU nuclear power plants worldwide for over three decades, updating the technology as needed.
