Aerospace & Defense
Digital solutions for strong inventory and digital supply chain management, compliance programs and process efficiency.
Manufacturers, suppliers and service providers in the aerospace and defense sector are under constant pressure. For example, increasing fluctuations in market requirements for flying components, high efforts in synchronizing deep BOM structures in EBOM and MBOM (engineering and manufacturing bill of material), complex assembly processes for series products, or the very high requirements for quality standards and controls jeopardize cost-effective production. Digital technologies and methods help to alleviate these pressures and at the same time strengthen the company's resilience in the face of future challenges.
