Announcement | Feb 11, 2021
Jay Sarkar, Founder President and CEO is pleased to announce that despite the many unexpected challenges we faced together with our clients, our company performed well during the year. The total confirmed backlog to date is currently larger than ever before in our history, despite our accelerated shipments in the fiscal year 2020 and the challenges we faced with the pandemic.
The world changed when the COVID-19 global pandemic arrived, by the beginning of March, we knew, like every other organization – the pandemic reality would bring an entirely new set of challenges, requiring a swift response. We committed to three very specific and clear objectives:
- To protect our people and their families;
- To continue to support our clients with high throughput; and
- Never compromise the quality of our products
Throughout the year, we sustained our commitment to delivering the highest standards of quality for our clients. We continue to implement new training, tools and technology in our pursuit of even-higher quality results for our clients.
During the year we significantly optimized and streamlined our inventory operations utilizing the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, in order to effectively support our manufacturing strategy. In addition, I am happy to report that our ERP system is successfully integrated into our operations. Our ERP system utilizes best practice standards and tools and helps our managers obtain real time statuses of project progress, track and effectively manage performance, and to develop scenarios in order to mitigate delays and more efficiently plan project tasks based on current resource allocation.
As we look ahead, we are identifying products, technologies, and services that Sartrex can diversify into, leveraging our unique manufacturing and technical capabilities. In this way, the company would transform its business using the existing business foundation to expand the domain and scope of its business.
All design and manufacturing activities happen in Canada at our local GTA facility. Sartrex operates within a 45000 sq. ft. fully integrated facility in Concord, Ontario and is registered to ISO 9001:2015, ASME NQA-1 and Z299.1/N299.2.
Our goal is to remain a global leader in custom design instrumentation and safety related technologies that are meant to safeguard the public’s health and safety. Sartrex is determined to continue to operate in a way that advances this objective, without compromise.

Announcement | February 24, 2020
Jay Sarkar, Founder President and CEO is pleased to announce the signing of the several new contracts in excess of 8.0 M. These major contracts are from New Brunswick Power, Ontario Power Generation (OPG), Bruce Power, KHNP (Korea), Sunrise (China) and others. The total confirmed backlog as on date was in excess of $13 million, despite our accelerated shipments in the fiscal year 2019.
Jay Sarkar is pleased to announce the successful installation of a very large Main Control Room Panel Simulator Project for Wolsong 3, through L3 Harris. This was a major project for us in 2019 in which 21 Simulator Panels were designed, manufactured and tested all at our local Concord Ontario facility.
During the year we significantly strengthened the number of personnel in Quality Assurance and Engineering to ensure we are adding relevant and industry leading expertise in order to manage and effectively implement our growth strategy.
In addition, we are pleased to report that our new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system was successfully integrated and implemented. In order to accommodate our scalability needs, we needed to invest in a smarter system that allows us more flexibility and more effective reporting tools to allow our staff to make thoughtful, and more dynamic decisions. Our new ERP system utilizes best practice standards and tools to help our managers obtain real time statuses of project progress, track and effectively manage supplier performance, and to develop scenarios in order to mitigate delays and more efficiently plan project tasks based on current resource allocation. In short, the investment into this ERP system provides Sartrex more sophistication and the tools to handle more work, without the risk of compromising budget, scope and timeline.
The Company is doing extremely well and as a testament, during the year Sartrex was honoured for its contributions to the Ontario and offshore nuclear industries by the Organization of Canadian Nuclear Industries (OCNI) at an event attended by distinguished luminaries from the Government and Industry.

Jay Sarkar, Founder President and CEO is pleased to announce the signing of the several new contracts in excess of 5.0 M. These major contracts are from OPG, Bruce Power, KHNP (Korea), TQNPC (China) and others. The total confirmed backlog as of December 21st 2018 was in excess of $10 million, despite our accelerated shipments in the fiscal year 2018.
During the year, the Sartrex team successfully completed the delivery of the mission critical Startup Instrumentation System (SUIS) to Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co. Ltd. (KHNP). The SUIS helps the KHNP operating staff in the continuous monitoring of neutron flux, during the change of the state of the reactor (‘Approach to Critical’ or ‘Startup’). The SUIS was re-designed, and developed using the latest technology to work in demanding conditions and was manufactured conforming to the quality standards of ASME NQA1, CSA Z299.1, and ISO 9001:2015.
In addition to the above, Sartrex also successfully completed the qualification of its SDS1 and RRS systems for OPG Darlington’s Refurbishment Project. Sartrex also successfully completed the qualification of Bruce Power Unit B safety shutdown refurbishment project. All of these successful delivered projects were built to the highest and most demanding quality standards in the nuclear industry. Sartrex was able to develop these safety critical systems without any technical exceptions.
During the year, given the major projects that Sartrex was able to secure, the company invested heavily in its technology infrastructure. We implemented a new company wide Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to increase organization wide efficiencies; and deployed cyber security, firewalls, crash plan procedures (including off site backups in real time) to ensure business continuity through security of data and networks.
All design and manufacturing activities happen in Canada at our local GTA facility. Sartrex operates within a 45000 sq. ft. fully integrated facility in Concord, Ontario and is registered to ISO 9001:2015, ASME NQA-1 and Z299.1

Startup Instrumentation System
Sartrex is pleased to announce the successful completion of the Startup Instrumentation System for Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co. Ltd. (KHNP).
The Startup Instrumentation System (SUIS) helps operating staff in the continuous monitoring of neutron flux, at all times during the change of the state of the reactor (‘Approach to Critical’ or ‘Startup’). The in-core and out-of-core instrumentation is divided into three independent channels to provide redundancy. The start-up instrumentation is connected into the three channels D, E, F of first shutdown system and can automatically trip the reactor if any two of the channels fail, or indicate neutron flux in excess of the trip set-point.
The Startup Instrumentation System was recently re-designed and developed by Sartrex, using the latest technology. It has been designed to work in demanding conditions.
SUIS Project Team
The Startup Instrumentation System was manufactured by Sartrex as per the quality standards of ASME NQA1, CSA Z299.1, CSA N286.2 and ISO 9001:2015.
The Startup Instrumentation System underwent rigorous Electromagnetic Compatibility tests and was qualified to standards such as: IEC 61000-4-2, IEC 61000-4-3, IEC 61000-4-4, IEC 61000-4-5, IEC 61000-4-6, MIL-STD-461, CE-101, CE-102, RE-101 and RE-102
