AEROSPACE OEM SUPPLY CHAIN
Opportunities and Challenges:
A pre-COVID boom in air travel with a large order book made long term aircraft demand unquestionable. COVID paused air travel and created havoc in aircraft production schedules. Post-COVID ramp up in production, including restarting supply chains, will be the big challenges from 2023 and 2025 due to raw material, parts, and continued labor shortages. Long term questions remain about the future size of the global commercial aircraft fleet including uncertainty of the future of high yield business travel demand, continued strength of leisure travel demand, impact of new emission regulations requiring fleet upgrades, and potential disruption and opportunities of alternative propulsive technologies.
