The Aerospace Steering Problem: From Cockpit to Boardroom
Europe is rearming, and after decades of declining defence budgets, aerospace and defence companies suddenly face a challenge they aren't built for: producing and delivering at record pace while running on planning and reporting structures that were never designed for it. Programmes that last 10-20 years, cash flow tied to parliamentary votes, and data fragmented across joint ventures and subcontractors make this one of the hardest steering environments in industry — and it's not a problem a new dashboard can fix. Drawing on years inside the sector, we look at why aerospace planning breaks down.
