Interim management in the aeronautics sector
The aeronautics industry has returned to growth after the historic collapse it suffered in 2020 as a result of the pandemic. However, aircraft manufacturers, engine makers and airlines are facing a series of short-, medium- and long-term challenges in meeting their sales order backlogs.
These include an uncertain raw materials market, recruitment and training difficulties (following recent staff cuts), and the need to reduce carbon footprints to meet decarbonization targets by 2050...
To succeed in this context, companies in the sector need to accelerate their transformation:
- Pursue efforts to transform the production tool as a whole, integrating new technologies to enhance competitiveness and make it more flexible, rapid and scalable
- Reinforce automation and robotization
- Accelerate digital transformation across the entire chain (in design, data management and exploitation, predictive maintenance, equipment monitoring with IoT...)
- Boost continuous improvement initiatives
- Strengthen development and innovation efforts (motorization, increasing use of composite materials to lighten aircraft weight, electric aircraft, hydrogen aircraft in the longer term, etc.)
- Boost human resources management, training and talent management and retention policies
- Rethink the supply chain
- Optimize the mobilization of resources (especially energy) and reduce the environmental impact of their activities
- Develop the use of sustainable aviation fuels (CAD or SAF) derived from biomass, and eventually the development of synthetic fuels...
- Organize fleet renewal (with the latest generations of aircraft offering significant fuel and CO2 emission savings) and recycling of retired aircraft
Our interim managers provide operational support to aircraft and helicopter manufacturers, as well as to small and medium-sized businesses and subcontractors, to manage emergency situations, transformation projects, financial improvements or complex reorganization projects.
