According to Lifecycle Insights’ Verification Management in Aerospace and Defense study, 56% of programs experience significant disruption to the schedule or cost weekly or more frequently. Findings from the same study show that 42% reduce program investments due to delays in the aircraft certification schedule. Many accept this as a way of life in the industry, but some companies execute programs far more efficiently, avoiding disruption and delivering on time.
Watch this webinar with Aviation Week to learn how to avoid issues that delay aircraft certification.
Common issues that delay aircraft certification
Because aircraft are such complex products, there are a number of issues that can derail aircraft certification and cause delays and cost increases. These include disjointed data systems, design changes, barriers with virtual testing, and the cost of building and maintaining physical test assets. Each of these issues is discussed thoroughly in the webinar.
Speed up aircraft certification
One way to speed up aircraft certification is to unite all program data in a single source of truth. Watch the webinar to learn more about how a single source of truth can help manage risk and avoid the issues listed above.
Topics covered in the webinar include:
- Causes of costly delays in achieving compliance
- How design changes impact your program schedule
- What you can do to minimize schedule disruptions and late changes
- Tips for ensuring an efficient approach to aircraft testing, verification and validation
