Defense and Aerospace

Strengthening  Defense and Aerospace

The defense and aerospace industry takes significant upfront risks by investing heavily in long-term programs. The financial impact of design mistakes, changes in schedules and manufacturing build rates along with program mismanagement is high. Consequently, in the defense market, organizations need to decide on which programs they want to pursue based on current, as well as future technology, materials costs, program longevity, likely build rates, timing and life cycle of the equipment.

Therefore, it becomes critical for Defense and Aerospace companies to pursue optimal designs for major programs and then effectively devise, streamline and optimize processes and operations to ensure sustained efficiency and profitability throughout the product lifecycle.

ASI Consulting works closely with engineering firms, developers, and manufacturers to achieve quantifiable process improvements to address their product design and on ongoing operational needs.
