Supplier collaboration in aerospace and defense - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

Since 2014, major aerospace airframers and engine suppliers have been jointly working on preparing future requirements for improved supplier collaboration. Their focus is on how they share electronic data throughout the lifecycle and determine best practices based on industry standards. This presentation highlights these efforts and describes a future vision as shared in a recently published position paper. You will see how our digital thread provides a model-based evaluation and source selection, where the digital thread extends throughout the supply chain, completing data rights management and securing a supplier portal for all collaboration and exchange of data.

 

 

Attend this webinar to learn about several key takeaways for better supply chain management in aerospace and defense organizations. We will share how to improve collaboration and gain insight by:

 

- Applying an integrated and model-driven approach to supply chain management using the digital thread

- Automating interfaces between functional domains and suppliers

- Building the digital twin to link requirements to source selection and all contract deliverables

- Integrating supplier schedules, deliverables and production capacities for each program

- Exchanging granular model-based data with the supply chain

- Protecting data rights and intellectual property for exchanged data throughout the supply chain, anywhere in the world
