Operations: Blas-Tech is the largest producer of personal energy weapons and light infantry. The company also produces turbolasers, ship weapons, missiles, and it's subsidiary Tarascii Explosives makes thermal detonators. They have also started producing armor, as well as well as Walkers. Eventually Tarascii Explosives will begin producing larger scale explosives and missiles to go along with the companies aggressive stance on weapons manufacturing.
Rationale:
Blas-Tech Industries has for the past few months been without an owner(Cade Lee Last Logged in Aug 22nd and well
this sub was made for it and subsequently canceled before of the subber's request, hence me stepping in). This sudden vacuum in power over Blas-Tech industries has left many shareholders, the board, and even customers wondering about exactly what is going on with this corporation.
Many enterprising corporations attempted to take over Blas-Tech and or buy shares of it, though most of them failed due to the stringent nature of the board and company that Cade Lee had run before his disappearance.
One enterprising young man by the name of Alric Kuhn however decided that he would not take no for an answer. Though Alric is a relatively unknown name within the community of business and large corporate take overs, he is well versed in that world. Until now he operated out of a Holding Company named after himself, Kuhn Consolidated. Being intelligent and sensing the political climate however Alric quickly made a move to seize power within Blas-Tech. Through guile and mostly mischievousness Alric managed to shadow puppet one of Blas-techs board members. He did this by first securing funding enough to become an investor and then beginning to strike up conversation with members of the Board.
Once one of the members was on his side, the others soon began to fall to his intelligence, wit, and charm.
From there it was all a matter of positioning and showing off his own acumen in the world of business. He moved swiftly, demonstrating to the board how to fix their problems, how Blas-Tech could recover from it's current fall, and in what ways they could benefit from the current political climate. It was not difficult to eventually convince them to place Alec in charge of the corporation itself, the board unanimously voting him in as CEO.
It should be noted that none of what Alec did to take control of Blas-Tech was strictly legal in any sense of the word, but when faced with big business in a corporation that spanned the entire galaxy, whose to say what laws actually apply?
Tier: 4
Description:
Blas-Tech Industries is the largest producer of blaster and energy weaponry in the galaxy. This focus has spread to include producing said armaments for ships, speeders, anything that can really hold a weapon. Moving forward logically, this focus has also shifted to what can protect an individual from said weapons they produce, as well as what types of platforms can carry their products. With the ever changing needs of those with an eye for the companies products, Blast-Tech has made a focus to always be ahead of the curve. This has led to a leap forward in it's weapons systems, and an ever expanding team for research and development.
With production facilities on all faction capitals(and on a few extra worlds for those with the coin) Blas-Tech is ideally suited to produce weaponry for every nation in the galaxy. Following a business model of always have at least 4-5 distribution centers in a nation at least, this has kept the company on the track to always being there when customers need them. A clause in every contract signed by the company allows it to ship weapons to another nation if production is lagging in one region, or they need to rid themselves of surplus in another region. War is a cyclical thing after all, and not every Nation is in conflict at all times. This allows a constant flow of inventory, while allowing production to continue unimpeded and possibly break labor laws on worlds where droids aren't permitted.
Iron clad contracts protect the company, and their open approach to their multiple dealings has helped rather than hinder. Being around longer than most nations has made the company be seen as a steadying force. While it does sale to nations that would be frowned upon, those operations are done in secret, and company logos are not used. In truth, Blas-Tech will sale to anyone with the credits to purchase their products. Those deals aren't openly discussed, but the company has a revenue stream coming from anyone with a need for energy weapons in the galaxy. In the wake of the 400 years darkness, this was used for slow expansion. Now that multiple nations are amassing arms for war, the company has upped production and it's factories to meet need while keeping prices affordable.
With such high quality weapons, the company is using it's research centers to push armor technology forward. Scientist there have also begun scaling up their weapons for ship use, as well as designing new walkers. These items have been pushed to mass-production status. Due to the high quality of the weaponry, Cade Lee found that most of the company's monthly income was from contract payments and missile and thermal detonator shipments. Seeking to streamline the process of ordering for customers, and making the company cutting edge. He streamlined gas cartridge ammunition with the "Plug N Fire" system. This allows for a steady stream of revenue, as the company further expands itself.
With the recent disappearance of Cade Lee and no one being able to find him, the company lost its way. Though previous take over attempts by other corporations failed one enterprising young man by the name of Alric Kuhn saw an opportunity to take over the company. Though not necessarily having the financial means to outright buy Blas-tech was Alric did have was a multitude of investors as well as his own Holding Company known as Kuhn Consolidated. Through the schmoozing of many rich people, as well as tremendous collateral to the Neimoidian banks, Alric managed to secure enough funding to worm his way into the investors vote of Blas-Tech Industries.
From there it was a simple matter of beginning to corrupt the members of the companies board. There, with the absence of Cade Lee still strong in their mind, Alric managed to convince many of the board members as well as a few substantial share holders to place him in charge of the company.
Though many argued against this action, mostly because Alric was a no-name business man from Neimoidia, a few saw the talents as well as the growth that Alric had created within his own company within simply a year. With a test of his intellect, and quick answers to potential problems that Blas-Tech Industries now faced the board ultimately decided that they at this point had nothing to lose, and as such placed Alric in charge of the company.

(This is a canon company. Traditionally in past submissions canon companies began at tiers higher than 2. I know this because I first ran company creation. I'm not entirely sure if such is still the case, I found no rules specifically pertaining to it. If it is not the case, then the changes that will be made are in bold.)
