Engineering services in Aerospace and Defense

May 27, 2017

Engineering is a complex and expensive activity that has always been at the heart of the aerospace and defense (A&D) industry. But in recent years, it has become harder to bring the right engineering capabilities to bear in the right place at the right time, as the industry has faced up to mounting challenges ranging from talent shortages to offset requirements, and from cost pressures to an aging workforce.

Look around. You'll see impressive looking buildings. Many look cool and appear to be functioning, so it's fair to assume that they must be built well. But they are not. They may be built to withstand earthquakes, support new trends in workflow, to win awards in Architectural Digest or meet cost per square foot metrics. However they are not built well, at least, to run well.

ENGINEERING THE NXT

whitePaper | May 24, 2022

The pace and degree of digital transformation has accelerated in the past year as businesses were forced to devise newer strategies to ensure business continuity while minimizing the negative impact of the pandemic. Enterprises that had made significant investments in digital technologies were better poised to face the unexpected and rapid changes in business scenarios, whereas those with low digital maturity had to spend a significant part of the early days of the pandemic in transforming their operations to suit the new normal. External factors such as customer needs and requirements, quality, reduction of production and control costs, environmental impact of products, etc., are pushing enterprises to re-evaluate their business strategies. They are continuously striving to find the right balance of increasing the margins of legacy products and to generate revenue growth through investments made towards digital innovation, new products, and services.

Rules for successful Integrated Planning as part of BIM

whitePaper | May 31, 2021

he digital planning, which can now be found in architecture and design offices, at general contractors or via prefabrication, bricklaying robots and GPS-based excavators already on the building site, is characterized by Building Information Modeling (BIM). Yet, BIM is only really an efficient and commercial option if it is paired with the integrated working method.

How component shortages are changing the construction equipment industry

whitePaper | September 22, 2022

Heightened volatility in global supply chains will persist into the future. This has major implications for the construction equipment industry. Based on data from both developed and developing markets, we identify five categories of disruption that are causing component scarcity in the short, medium and long term: geopolitical, structural, environmental, operational and reputational disruptions. For most industry players, geopolitical and structural risks are top of mind.

AI Data Engineering Lifecycle Checklist

whitePaper | May 12, 2022

Machine learning is powering most of the recent advancements in artificial intelligence including autonomous systems, computer vision, natural language processing, predictive analytics, and a wide range of applications among the seven patterns of AI. However, in order for these systems to be able to create accurate generalizations, these machine learning systems must be trained on data. The more advanced forms of machine learning, especially deep learning neural networks, require significant amounts of data to be able to create models with acceptable levels of accuracy.
