AEROSPACE



Realigning value creation structures

Companies in the civil aerospace industry are confronted with high transformation pressure in various fields of activity. The aerospace sector is currently characterized by the fulfillment of large order volumes at the agreed quantities – in many places, this means a permanent, high stress test for the stability of supply chains between OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.

At the same time, the topic of industrial sustainability is gaining in importance: both in the manufacturing of airplanes and their components and in the end product, the focus is increasingly on optimally harmonizing environmental and cost factors.

Space travel is also characterized by serious changes. Private companies such as SpaceX, Blue Origin and Rocket Lab in particular are ensuring that the pressure to innovate and compete in the market is constantly increasing. They are setting new standards in terms of the costs and time-to-market of new products with disruptive technologies.

Established companies and institutions in both aerospace sectors are therefore challenged to improve existing processes and open up new business areas in a short period of time. In addition to the aspects mentioned above, the market offers further attractive starting points – for example in cybersecurity solutions to counter geopolitical tensions that extend into space.

Consulting partner of the aerospace industry

There are plenty of opportunities to turn these challenges into business successes: for example, emission-free propulsion technologies, innovative aviation fuels (SAF) and composite materials support the implementation of sustainability goals in the aviation sector. At the same time, space travel is diversifying into future-oriented business areas, such as space tourism or in the context of new missions to Mars and the moon. However, existing strengths can also often be expanded, for example by using AI (artificial intelligence) to simulate, develop and manufacture new products.

Take advantage of EFESO's industry-proven strategy and implementation expertise. Design efficient development and production networks, resilient and sustainable supply chains with us and align your value creation structures for the future and growth! Our services for aerospace companies include:

We also advise aircraft manufacturers and their suppliers on the digital transformation of their processes along the entire value chain. We support for example in the acquisition of new business (Proposal-Support), in program and offset management - or configure a "Future Factory", which meets the requirements of the organization and the market environment of the company.

»We set high demands for external consultants. Everything has to be a perfect fit here: from the know-how of the deployed consultants with regard to operational excellence, to the way in which they collaborate with the various project teams, to the fee model. EFESO fully met our expectations.«
Jenoptik AG
Dr. Ing. Michael Mertin, former Chairman of the Board of Directors
»We are very satisfied with the result. The design is already showing that short, efficient assembly time will be absolutely feasible. We ascertained these results not just in theory but very vividly with a 3P (Production Preparation Process) workshop. The design’s good momentum will also flow into a follow-up project.«
MTU Aero Engines
Elmar Stichlmair, Consultant Engineering Assembly civil programs
»EFESO successfully supported Wingcopter in designing a digital architecture with business-oriented use cases for the coming years. The consultants contributed a high level of expertise as well as the necessary flexibility and goal orientation to develop a comprehensive result in a short time. We very much enjoyed the partnership-based, open and committed cooperation.«

Factory of the Future

Special plant construction is a volatile project business with the smallest batch sizes, individual customer requirements and high complexity. Conflicting entrepreneurial goals of those involved make it difficult for companies to plan. In this complex market, EFESO developed a tailor-made factory of the future for a manufacturing company in order to increase the quality of the products, reduce costs and make projects more plannable.

Quality excellence

Whether in the automotive, mechanical engineering or consumer goods industry: Quality problems are treacherous. If they remain undetected or ignored, they already cost a lot of money. In order to bring quality management to a new level of performance, the right combination of proven measures and new technologies must be found. With the lean supply chain management approach from EFESO, companies can develop in many ways in terms of quality.

Lean Training / Shop Floor Management

Lean practice on the hall floor. With the EFESO lean training program, an industrial group improved its value-added processes at over ten locations. The program not only brought the different levels of knowledge of the managers in Lean Thinking down to a common denominator. With a multiplier approach, it also transferred the theory directly into work practice on the hall floor - from the first day of training.
