Jordan signs technology agreement with RAND

Jordan Grand Prix has signed a technology agreement with RAND Worldwide, a leading provider of technology and engineering services.

The agreement will see RAND provide Jordan with computer-aided-design and manufacture (CAD/CAM) technology, software solutions, including data management tools and services, which will be used to design and manufacture Jordan’s Formula One cars.

As part of the five-year partnership, RAND will support the implementation of its tools and train the team’s designers to maximise their potential benefits.

RAND’s branding will appear on the Jordan Ford EJ14 cars starting with the next round of the F1 World Championship, the Grand Prix of San Marino on 23 to 25 April.

John McQuilliam, Jordan’s Chief Designer, said: "I am looking forward to working with RAND.

"The design process is fundamental to the team’s success and as such I am keen to give my team the best possible tools."
