This [[Lopez]]-based corporation is notable for manfacturing power plants in both the [[Free Worlds League]] and the [[Taurian Concordat]]. The corporate branch on Lopez is dedicated to the manufacture of weapons.
  
The company's Taurian operations were unusual. In contrary to the operational procedures of many other plants, the Concordat produces its massive DropShip engines at one plant and distributes them to several shipyards for assembly, rather than building an assembly plant at the same site where the drives are built.<ref name=H:HMp133/>
