Aerospace, defence and transport

Companies in the aerospace, defence and transport sectors face very similar tasks and challenges. They research, design, develop, manufacture, market, sell, operate and maintain their products.

 

All these organizations operate on a global scale and in highly competitive environments. They have also made the after-sales market one of their key growth drivers and, as a consequence, have adapted their business processes. For instance, product support specialists are now involved in engineering projects. They have also decided to market products manufactured with a maximum of re-usable components: "configurable to order" is the business model.

 

ADT companies have to manage a complex supply chain, including customers, suppliers, partners, contractors, consultants and OEMs. They are constantly faced with managing an enormous flow of information. Management of the content and information lifecycle becomes imperative, and requires effective systems capable of meeting the new requirements, including product localization.

 

In addition, product and maintenance documentation must be produced faster and be published using multiple channels (e.g. PDF, intranet, website or built-in computer systems). ADT customers and their internal maintenance teams must have configured documentation at their disposal whenever they are dealing with product-related trouble shooting or maintenance. Consequently, documentation (which can represent up to 10% of the costs) has become a key element for project success.

 

Adherence to a number of regulatory requirements and standards, including those relating to the environment, is another challenge. Mission-critical responsiveness and compliance with information standards and safety regulations are extremely important, particularly in the aerospace sector.
