XPO’s Whitepaper: Aerospace Logistics

In aerospace, automation, business, cost management, cost reduction, Lean manufacturing, manufacturing, manufacturing operations, product development, production efficiency by Harshini SrikanthanLeave a Comment

XPO Logistics has partnered with a major Aerospace company whose rotorcraft manufacturing unit recognized an opportunity to successfully increase efficiency at its manufacturing operations. The aerospace company’s plant held 20 storage areas that occupied significant space and delayed the flow of goods to the manufacturing line. In addition to that, assembly mechanics spent excess time looking for and unpacking individual parts and disposing of packaging materials, which increased the cost of labor. In order to increase efficiency within the Rotorcraft manufacturing unit, XPO implemented a comprehensive solution that supported Lean manufacturing strategies, including: Off-campus storage of all materials Management of more than 85,000 SKUs of high-value inventory Assembly of tools and parts into ergonomically designed prefabricated kits JIT delivery of material tot he point-of-use location XPO’s major engagements with this aerospace client include a defense contract, a rotorcraft contract, support in the launching of a new commercial airliner, and the creation of both an aggregated standards network and a comprehensive aftermarket support network for both current and legacy aircraft models.   To read more about XPO’s partnership,  click here.
