Abstract
The driving forces behind the commerical aerospace
business in 1996 were consolidation at both the
supplier and OEM level, intensifying competition,
globalization, lean supply chains, and revolutions
in the design process. More than previously, this
past business cycle has triggered a more
significant downsizing of the population, both in
the number of suppliers and OEMs. Suppliers
wishing to succeed in this environment will need
to develop close working relationships with their
customers to redesign their business streams, not
just internally, but across the supply chain of
suppliers, distributors, and customers. Research
indicates that by leveraging the extended
enterprise, alliances earn a return on investment
in excess of 50% higher than other endeavors at
the same company. |
