SAAB and IBM are team members on the HCM project.

Successful relations have led to exploration of a global partnership.

Saab & IBM are working towards a strong, growing business relationship in Canada, and globally, where there was a relatively insignificant relationship prior to the HCM project.

In part, the industrial cooperation relationship between SAAB and IBM helped support a significant R&D contribution by IBM to the University of Toronto Scinet Consortium to build Canada’s most powerful and energy-efficient supercomputer.

The computer is being used for ground-breaking research in aerospace, astrophysics, bioinformatics, chemical physics, climate change prediction, computational biology and medical imaging and as part of the global ATLAS project, which is investigating the forces that govern the universe.
