As part of the OMP Solutions contract signed with Cameroon in January 2020, which provides for the supply, training and through-life support of equipment, the Marck & Balsan teams work alongside the units engaged in the Central African Republic under UN mandate (blue helmets) and the Cameroonian Ministry of Defense.
The photos below illustrate one of these missions.

- Package effects (4 to 6 TC20) to equip the 3 units (1 battalion 750H, 2 police units 180H + 140H) just before the annual rotation in CAR;
- spare parts and consumables (6 to 8 TC20) to maintain and operate all the equipment delivered in 2021 (more than 100 vehicles and trailers, 48 generators for example);
- equipment and/or vehicles intended for national use.
For the year 2023-2024, 18 Toyota pick-ups (LC and Hilux), 1 bus (24 seats), 1 VIP bus (65 seats), 1 tractor truck with 2 trailers (container carriers and machine carriers), 1 intervention and dispersal vehicle (maintaining order) and 1 forklift (11T) will have been delivered.
With each delivery to Douala, an OMP Solutions team participates in the final reception of the materials with the Cameroonian customer as well as in training their implementation for the benefit of users.
