Aerospace & Defence
“Having gone through the market and having a very thorough look at what was available, I think the team we were using, which included myself, came down to the view that given the complexity of our business which is probably a lot more complex than you would imagine for its size, that SAP was the only system that was going to do the job.”
— Peter Lewis, Head of Operations, Martin Baker Aircraft Company Limited
To succeed in today’s competitive and highly regulated environment, Aerospace & Defence organisations must overcome a myriad of challenges. You must design technologically superior products in a collaborative environment faster than ever, accurately forecast sales quotas and operating budgets, and manufacture products using a variety of lean production processes. In addition you need to make sure that these products meet the most stringent quality tolerances complying with legislation and programmes such as AECA, ITAR, Denied Party Screening, Controlled Goods Classifications, Export Licence Documentation and the need for specific documentation (MOD, DOD, FAA, PMA, EASA). CIBER understands the critical need to get compliance right and that the whole business carries its share of responsibility. Our solution addresses the key factors in this vital area.
As a leading IT consultancy, CIBER understands the issues and the complexities of the Aerospace & Defence marketplace. We have implemented SAP at many Aerospace & Defence organisations ranging from single site businesses through to groups with global operations. Although different in size, they share common processes around global supply chains, high traceability requirements, Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) as a core business component and complex bid processes with high levels of change. Expertise Hubs have been created to support the development of our solutions and our Aerospace & Defence group is headquartered in the UK with operations in the US to support the two most active geographies in the industry directly.
