Jet Fuel for Rising Shares in Aerospace & Defense Market: Rapid New Product Introduction Processes

The aerospace and defense (A&D) market is changing rapidly and involves technologically superior products as well as extremely complex processes and systems. A&D is facing many challenges, such as reducing time-to-market, rising costs, rapid changes in technology, faster innovation cycles which directly affect an A&D company’s new product introduction (NPI) which is a critical issue for market success.

Therefore aerospace & defense companies, which acts in a collaborative extended enterprise environment, are committed to fast ramp-up and manufacturing processes in order to stay competitive in today’s market.

The aerospace & defense companies are facing their biggest market ever resulting in record production levels. A&D companies must deploy systems and practices that meet the need to faster time-to-profit while providing high quality and flexibility in engineering and manufacturing processes. This is not an easy task when faced with project driven manufacturing.

The conference New Product Introduction Aerospace & Defense (September 25 & 26, 2008, Frankfurt/Germany) will deal with the topic. Attending this conference will allow A&D Managers to uncover and retain the key to bring innovative products faster to market and will provide a closer look into major players` success stories.
