“Training costs are lower,” he says, “as it takes less time for operators to become proficient. Operating costs are also less because the system has no consumables that need replacing nor moving parts that need servicing.”
As a fledgling business, Brijot employs just 50 direct staff at the moment at its Orlando headquarters, responsible for all the engineering and prototype preparation. Component parts are made by subcontractors and returned to Orlando for final assembly. Ironically, Brijot’s lean structure—rather than being an attraction to customers—is something of a drawback. “We’re dealing with some of the country’s largest organizations,” says Laskey, “and they’re used to dealing with equally large suppliers. Being a small company in a large market calls for considerable patience, as the whole sales process is slow and long.” But while airport users are making up their minds, there is no shortage of other potential users to talk to. The possibilities for this technology are wide, and as well as overseas airport users, Brijot is building links with systems development contractors who could incorporate PMMW into whatever they are planning to use to beat the bad guys. www.brijot.com
