Commitment is one of our core values that guides how we work at SAM NI.

In the first post of our new monthly values series, our Business Development Manager, Adam Hylands, shares what commitment means to him and how he applies it in his role.

Adam said:
โ€œTo me, commitment means doing what I say Iโ€™ll do, even if it means going above and beyond. In business development, this means building client relationships beyond the first conversation, staying in touch, following up and delivering on every promise we make from the outset.โ€

Over the coming months, members of our team will introduce each of our core values and share how they shape our work across SAM NI.

In the fast-paced aerospace manufacturing environment, customersโ€™ technical requirements can change. When we receive a technical query, drawing revision or updated specification, our engineering team reviews the change and assesses its impact.

We adapt the manufacturing process where needed and keep our customers informed at every stage. This structured approach helps us maintain quality, manage change and meet agreed delivery schedules.

Review. Respond. Resolve.

Thatโ€™s how SAM NI keeps complex aerospace manufacturing on course.

Some members of our team travelled to Stormont on Friday to take part in NI Chamberโ€™s first Stormont Run Around, raising money for Cancer Fund for Children.

Alongside businesses from across Northern Ireland, we tackled the 5K route through Stormont Estate before catching our breath over a delicious barbecue at Stormont Pavilion with colleagues and friends.

It was a great way to finish a busy week, crossing the finish line for a great cause and supporting children and families affected by cancer.

Thank you to NI Chamber, event sponsor Kingsbridge Private Hospital Group and media partners Irish News and Q Radio for bringing everyone together and hosting such an enjoyable event.

Before becoming SAM NI, we operated as JW Kane Precision Engineering for over 30 years.

In 2019, we joined Singapore Aerospace Manufacturing Ltd and became SAM NI. This gave us access to wider expertise, greater resources and international markets.

From a sole trader founded in Portadown to part of a global aerospace group, we remain exceptionally proud of our roots.

Today, we continue to build on our engineering heritage, manufacturing high-quality aerospace components from our home base in Northern Ireland.

At SAM NI, weโ€™re working to reduce the environmental impact of manufacturing precision aerospace components.

Our investment in high-speed, automated machining helps us reduce our carbon footprint by:
๐ŸŒฑ Cutting energy use
๐ŸŒฑ Lowering carbon emissions
๐ŸŒฑ Minimising material waste
๐ŸŒฑ Improving production efficiency

Through lean production methods, smarter use of resources and continued investment in our Portadown facility, weโ€™re building a cleaner approach to aerospace manufacturing.
