The Increasing Value of Design for Manufacturing in the Post-COVID World
The global pandemic exposed vulnerabilities both in the process of preparing a product for manufacturing and the global supply chains that support Aerospace and Defense manufacturers. Organizations need to rethink their processes and realign their supply base to counter vulnerabilities the pandemic exposed, as well as to improve efficiency in product development.
This webinar will provide an overview of the changing needs in creating A&D product designs optimized to meet mission and manufacturing requirements, including:
- State of the A&D industry – increased spending, growing worldwide tensions
