Global aerospace and defense is a high technology industry witnessing emerging developments in space and military ventures to support the nations’ war fighters. However, in this era of ‘persistent conflict,’ A&D companies are faced with a myriad of challenges including regulatory requirements, declining funding, defense acquisition instability, volatile fuel prices and security concerns.
The aerospace and defense industry’s health, competitiveness and strength relies heavily on research, innovation and leading edge technology. Whilst managing products which in themselves are very complex, the industry must also manage a multi-faceted set of relationships and issues such as counterfeit prevention, guaranteeing component authenticity and quality control. Additionally, as military equipment is retired and decommissioned, recycling research must be leveraged to ensure environmentally safe reuse of components. Consideration must be made to the manufacturing industry’s preparedness to reduce operational and support costs, by ensuring every possible action is taken to prevent waste and abuse from effecting program costs and schedules. This industry thus requires a robust base characterized by streamlined and advanced manufacturing and technology integration to ensure efficiencies.
The Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing Summit will highlight the current challenges and opportunities for aerospace and defense manufacturing executives through visionary keynote presentations and case studies delivered by your most esteemed peers and thought leadersfocused on innovative technologies in aerospace and defense companies across North America. The one-on-one meetings with leading solution and service providers will offer a wealth of expertise in cutting-edge technology, strategy and implementation. All this, seamlessly integrated with informal networking opportunities over two days will provide a unique interactive forum. Do not miss this opportunity to network, establish new connections, exchange ideas and gain knowledge.
The primary objective of the Aerospace & Defense Manufacturing Summit is to explore the key aspects and issues related to aerospace and defense manufacturing best practices. The Summit's program topics have been pinpointed and validated by the aerospace and defense community as the top critical issues they face. Key issues for 2012 include:
