Aerospace 4.0 – Terms of Reference

In the pursuit of productivity, eifficency, and competitiveness gains; the aerospace industry is keen to adopt digital capabilities.

The challenge, however, is around adoption – particularly at the supply chain level. Technology has a key role to play, but digitalisation is not a technology challenge. Moreover, digitalisation needs not be disruptive, transformational or costly, but equally, companies who do not adapt to this change, risk being outcompeted by those that do. Our Mission is to educate, facilitate and foster the Aerospace Sector in adopting these digital technologies.

VISION

  1. To create an Aerospace Industry which understands the emerging fast-changing Digital Technology landscape, to be able to exploit these for competitive advantage.
  2. To create an Aerospace Industry which has an appropriate level of awareness of the security challenges surrounding emerging digital technologies.
  3. To create a Collaborative Ecosystem to take advantage of A. and B.
