Space Credibility Canada Inc. (SCCI) has secured a $2 million contract to supply components for Dish Network's EchoStar 26 satellite. This contract involves providing circuit assemblies essential for the satellite's power amplification system.

Founded by experienced space sector professionals, SCCI emerged to fill a gap in Canadian space manufacturing after Leonardo DRS exited the industry. The company specializes in low-volume, high-mix production for space applications, requiring expertise in handling the rigors of space environments.

Their capabilities include sourcing space-quality components, assembling them onto printed wiring boards, and ensuring traceability and compliance with stringent space standards. In 2026, SCCI plans to enhance its manufacturing capabilities by adding advanced equipment including a pick and place robot and reflow oven, aiming to support additional commercial space programs.
