[SIZE=9pt]Corporation Name:[/SIZE] [SIZE=9pt]Incom Corporation[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Headquarters: Manufacturing Centers – [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]Ranklinge, Commenor, Fresia, Fondor (Contracted) | Research and Development Center – Rakata Prime | Administration Center - Chandrila[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Locations:[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] After the events that effected the entire galaxy, Incom Corporation shifted the entire company structure throughout the Galaxy. Alyesa Organa decided to move the R&D facility to the further reaches of space while keeping the Headquarters closest to the centers of business in the Core Worlds. They maintained their facilities throughout the Galaxy to Include Ranklinge, Commenor, Fresia and Fondor.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Operations:[/SIZE] [SIZE=9pt]Incom started its existence as Torranix Inertial Compensator Corporation, but the awkward name soon slimmed down to Incom Corporation. They are leaders in repulsorlift technology and starship design, and have long ridden the success of their X-Wing line of starfighters and other developments. Currently, they make all manner of vehicles, ranging from ground-based pleasure, racing, and utility vehicles, to space vessels - starfighters, freighters, yachts, and larger craft. Even massive repulsorlifts, the most famous of which being Cloud City, are part of Incom’s repertoire.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Rationale:[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] Alyesa Praxon’s path to getting Incom Corporation under her belt was a rather interesting one. A tale of disaster that turned into a story of success. She was aiding the Republic on Drunkenwell in the aftermath of the Confederacy and Omega Protectorate battle. Her job was to assess the damage to contracts by each company effected by the battle, at that time it was brought to her attention how badly Incom Corporation had suffered. Their losses were not only monetary but they had lost a substantial amount of high-end personnel and Alyesa knew with a company like Incom Corporation and it’s various achievements throughout the years, it was too big to fail. Alyesa knew of ways to bail them out, but it had to be secured quickly. Through quick thinking and financial negotiations, Alyesa was able to secure bonds and other loans to aid Incom Corporation and in turn buy them out with an initial 65% purchase of stock. After a few weeks, when the aftermath of Drukenwell had subsided and the initial contracts of the Republic and other governments had been fulfilled, Alyesa was able to purchase an additional 15% of the stock. In the end, after the wake of Drunkenwell and the financial crisis, Alyesa invested 20% of the stock back into Incom Corporation, allowing herself 60% control and 20% financial investment into the company with 20% remaining for stockholders and any private investors. This investment and control allows her to interact with higher-up engineers, assist with day to day operations and make changes as she sees fit with or without assistance from a stockholder appointed Board of Directors.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Tier: [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]Tier IV[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Description: [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]Incom Corporation started out as Torranix Inertial Compensator Corporation, which was a company that specialized in design, construction and implementation of repulsorlift technology. This company was increasing the standard of repulsorlift technology through increasingly complex design and quality. One of the more noteable designs and creations was that of Cloud City, in the mining world of Bespin. A short while after, they partnered with Sub-Pro Corporation to create an atmospheric fighter and spacecraft which would become known as the Z-95 Headhunter. This craft became the base of mainstream galactic aerospace engineering, and a product line that lasts for generations. After the success of the Z-95, contractual obligations and partnerships between Incom and Sub-Pro went south, thus leading to the two companies to go separate directions.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]During the Clone Wars, Incom Corporation was commissioned for a joint project known as the Aggressive Reconnaisance-170 or the ARC-170 Fighter. This fighter was a heavy fighter/bomber variant which was utilized heavily during the end of the Clone Wars and eventually transitioned into the modern T-65A X-Wing design of the Galactic Civil War. Shortly after the X-Wing fighter plans were finalized, the Galactic Empire nationalized Incom. In response, a vast majority of the engineers and scientists defected, taking the X-Wing plans and four prototypes with them. In retaliation, the Empire arrested what former Incom employees they could find and sentenced them to the spice mines of Kessel, but they were rescued by Captain Antilles of the Alliance.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Some employees that didn’t defect, but didn’t remain with the Imperial-controlled Incom, broke away and created FreiTek, Inc. After the fall of the Empire, Incom regrouped, with FreiTek becoming a subsidiary corporation dedicated to avionics and armatures, existing under the Incom Corporation umbrella. Established in the last several years are two other subsidiary corporations: Incom Select and Incom Environmental. Incom Select was the brainchild of Araceli Loxley, who saw an untapped market that Incom could exploit - the high-end custom vessel market. Alyesa saw that both Incom Select and Environmental were subsidiaries that were nessecary to carry on from the previous Chief Executive Officer and were simplistic enough to not affect the bottom line. Incom was able to produce luxury craft, freighters, even gunships and starfighters (within legal limits, of course) for individuals, companies, and governments that wanted and could afford something more specialized than Incom’s mass-produced lines.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Alyesa did not share her predecessor’s view of the Confederacy of Independent Systems or the view of the Techno Union. One of her first acts as Chief Executive Officer and primary shareholder was to suspend all production of Confederacy related products immediately. She believed that Galactic Republic, the Omega Protectorate and other affiliated governments and factions would prevail from designs from Incom Corporation.[/SIZE]
