Aerospace & Defense

Aerospace and Defense companies face unique challenges with the size and scope of new “System of Systems” approaches to design and development, along with greater scrutiny of program budgets, governments’ initiatives to standardize manufacturing processes, and compliance with tightening regulatory oversight. Both defense contractors and commercial aviation companies feel pressures to preserve margins, reduce time-to-delivery, and improve profitability of long-term engineering configuration management control and aircraft Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) functions.

In a period of consolidation and globalization among supply chain partners, companies need to re-engineer and streamline supply chain management ? among other functions ? to remain competitive.
