Aerospace & Defense
Aeronautics, Defense and Space manufacturers are facing new challenges. New entrants to the market with innovative products and business models creates strong competition. Exigent clients who expect “the five-legged sheep” and restricted numbers of suppliers cause limited bargaining power. Endless and expensive development and qualification policy in an environment changing faster and faster…
However, there are more opportunities for optimization than ever before. New components allow designs that embody more properties at a lower cost. The harmonization of products allows to align with the needs of customers while being more competitive. Development projects contains many “non-added value” items that can be optimized.
These optimization initiatives are sometimes not carried out successfully because of the same constraints: respect for safety and requirements in harsh environments, weak negotiating power towards suppliers and customers, and the renewal of “bad ways of doing things” for decades.
The key challenge for these players is therefore to remove these barriers in order to rethink existing products and projects to achieve considerable gains.
