Aerospace
The aerospace industry is typified by long and complicated supply chains and a need for rigorous manufacturing controls and standards. Customer satisfaction and cost containment requires optimizing partner management, procurement, manufacturing and testing, parts/finished product data recall, inventories, MRO, etc.
The recovering economy globally has resulted in positive growth in the commercial and general aviation segments of the sector. Orders for commercial aircraft by aviation operators are up. Spend on general aviation aircraft (pistons, single/multi turboprops, business jets) is also up.
Global commercial aircraft manufacturing revenue is estimated at $270 billion. Global military aircraft and aerospace manufacturing revenue is estimated at $166 billion by IBISWorld. Orders for efficient military/defense rotorcraft are on the rise; lagging are orders for fixed wing aircraft for military/defense.
