For a second year in a row, our accounting team at thyssenkrupp Aerospace US headquarters in Washington state, organized a #volunteering event in support of Vine Maple Place, a local charity that focuses on homelessness and helping families in need. 🏡 They rolled up their sleeves to clean the charity’s property, cut back dead foliage, pull weeds, and lend a hand wherever it was needed. The work done by those who volunteered was quite impactful, and further developed our relationship with a great charity in the community near our headquarters and operational teams. For those who couldn’t volunteer, we also held a company-wide drive to gather resources for families in need. From food to everyday personal essentials, our team was able to gather helpful items for those in need. 💙 We are proud to support the local communities where we are located, and we recognize that we have a responsibility to help whenever we can. Events like this are a perfect example of the significance of #teamwork, and how we have the ability to truly create change! #charity

Last week, our thyssenkrupp Materials France team had a great time at the salonsiane Industries Fair, one of the largest industrial events in France. It was an incredible opportunity to showcase our latest innovations, connect with industry leaders, and highlight our commitment to advancing aerospace solutions. We were excited to welcome a steady flow of valued customers to our stand, discussing how we can continue to support their projects and bring added value to their supply chains. It was also a joy to meet students from the Airbus High School, whose enthusiasm and curiosity for aerospace engineering reminded us why we love what we do! Engaging with the next generation of aerospace professionals was a highlight, and we look forward to seeing the impact they’ll make in the industry. Thank you to everyone who stopped by to visit us, and to the event organizers for an inspiring week!

Today, 23rd October, is dedicated to the #BrazilianAirForce ✈️ (Força Aérea Brasileira - FAB). Aviator Day (Dia do Aviador) and Brazilian Air Force Day is the date on which Alberto Santos Dumont, Patron of the Brazilian Air Force, made the first flight with the 14-Bis, an airplane created by him, in 1906, in France. The Brazilian Air Force was officially established on January 20th, 1941, as a merger of the Army and Navy aviation branches, making it one of the most significant air forces in Latin America. Today, it is second only in size to the United States Air Force in the Americas. As well as being a formidable force in the skies with its modern fleet of aircraft, including the Gripen E fighter jets, KC-390 Millennium transport aircraft, and advanced radar systems, the FAB is also renowned for its humanitarian work and peace-keeping missions. We’re proud to serve Brazil’s aerospace industry through our division in São Paulo, thyssenkrupp Autômata Industria de Pecas Ltda., and we hope all our colleagues, and everyone in the thriving Brazilian aerospace industry, enjoy this special day.  #aerospace #diadoaviador

Generative AI is driving innovation in supply chains, but what exactly is it, and how can it transform supply chain management? Let’s start by comparing the two. Traditional AI relies on pre-set algorithms for data analysis, predictions, and task automation. For years, it has been crucial for optimizing inventory management, demand forecasting, and warehouse automation. 📈  Generative AI is capable of learning from vast datasets and generating entirely new outputs such as text and images. With machine learning at its core, it can innovate and address complex supply chain challenges, such as disruptions and demand variability, in real time. GenAI is already reshaping supply chains by dynamically adjusting production schedules, forecasting disruptions, and optimizing transportation routes to cut costs and reduce carbon footprints. It also allows companies to simulate scenarios and proactively resolve bottlenecks and shortages. Implementation, however, remains challenging. 🛑 A survey by EY and HFS Research shows 73% of supply chain executives are eager to adopt GenAI, but only 7% have succeeded. Of those, just 28% achieved low-human-touch operations, and 50% gained end-to-end visibility. Overcoming these challenges demands expert guidance. That’s why we work closely with our customers to implement an AI-powered digital control tower, enhancing inventory accuracy and streamlining order management.

📣 CEO in action: at this year’s Ingenics AG Ulmer Gespräche #UG24 event, the spotlight was on the transformational change required for companies to remain competitive in today’s rapidly evolving world. Transformation is not just an option; it’s a critical success factor, spanning lean, green, and digital advancements—but it also demands dynamic change at all levels of a company. Our Supply Chain Solutions Global CEO, Patrick Marous delivered a keynote on resilience and transparency in the aerospace supply chain, highlighting how the aerospace industry has faced extraordinary challenges over the past few years. To mitigate these issues, many companies resort to stockpiling inventories—a solution that is not sustainable in the long term. The answer? Partnership ecosystems managed by an external service provider such as thyssenkrupp Aerospace. These ecosystems enable companies to build transparent, resilient supply chains, ensuring efficiency and adaptability while mitigating risks. The goal is to move away from temporary fixes and embrace long-term collaboration and innovation. We are at the forefront of this transformation, driving resilience and innovation across the aerospace sector. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dkKyTYHF #supplychain #aerospace

Sustainability is quickly emerging as a key priority for global supply chains.  A recent Gartner survey highlighted end-to-end sustainable supply chains as a key technology trend for 2024, stressing the importance of accurate data to meet stakeholder demands and drive internal decisions.  Similarly, KPMG's 2024 report emphasized the need for transparency beyond just Tier 1 and 2, pointing out that limited visibility across multiple tiers can challenge regulatory compliance and risk management 📊. At thyssenkrupp Aerospace, we are committed to setting and achieving impactful sustainability goals. We recognize the complexity of untangling scope 1, 2, and 3 data and are committed to simplifying this for both our customers and us. Our initiatives are designed to execute this strategy effectively. For example, our Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) calculator allows customers to precisely calculate CO2 emissions for all products within their supply chains, enabling process optimization and data-driven decision-making. Additionally, our Voluntary Carbon Credits Desk offers a market-based approach to offset emissions from products, transportation, building use, flights and even hotel stays. While individual offsets may appear small, they add up over time. Our curated list of initiatives makes it easier for customers to work towards net-zero emissions.
