Demanding customers Aerospac e and defens e (A&D) enterpris es face increased customer expectations for product innovations. They want more for less and want performance-based services, such as performance-based logistics. This revolutionizes how A&D companies manage complex programs and their global supply chain

Limited resources Besides a lack of engineers, A&D companies must also battle for supply resources and cost-effective materials.

New competitors on the playing field As industry boundaries are blurring, aerospace manufacturers are getting boxed in by suppliers that are moving up the value chain, as well as customers moving down the value chain. Vertical integration is again becoming increasingly important

Digitalization Digital is the new norm. The digitalization of products, processes, and services is a way to react to increased customer demand, but it poses a number of challenges in itself. These span from organizational setup and systems engineering capabilities to having the right talent and being able to operate in a cybersecure environment.
