Boost A220 production efficiency. Deep analysis of final assembly processes identified opportunities, delivering 30% time savings and enhancing overall quality.
A specialized project undertaken by ALTEN Technology focused on enhancing the final assembly line of the Airbus A220 family at a major aircraft OEM’s Mobile, AL facility. The core aim was to optimize TAKT time, ensuring the site achieved excellence in production. This comprehensive initiative involved an in-depth analysis of existing operations, pinpointing critical challenges and risks, and subsequently proposing both immediate “quick wins” and long-term strategies to achieve G5 maturity. ALTEN Technology’s team meticulously benchmarked current processes, tooling, quality, and safety standards, and developed solutions specifically targeting improvements in productivity, reduction of non-conformities, identification of safety risks, optimization of tool availability, and streamlining of parts logistics. By synthesizing complex process data and designing an improved future state, ALTEN Technology delivered tangible results, including a detailed action plan and opportunities that led to a significant 30% reduction in time on the final assembly line.
