🚀 Commercial Aerospace Set for a Landmark Year in 2024!
I'm thrilled to share the key findings from our latest Accenture Commercial Aerospace Insight Report, which reveals a strong recovery and a bright future for the #aerospace #sector. The commercial aerospace industry is on track to surpass 2019 revenues by almost 11%, signaling a remarkable recovery and growth trajectory post-pandemic, even as we navigate some ongoing challenges.
Here are some key takeaways:
🌍 Aviation Growth: Revenue passenger kilometers rose by 36.9% globally, with an additional 9.8% increase projected for 2024. The aviation sector is not just bouncing back—it's soaring to new heights!
🔗 Supply Chain Confidence: Supply chain challenges persist.
While executives expressed increased confidence in their supply chain's ability
to deliver on time over the next six months (Despite ongoing challenges,
79% of executives are confident their supply chains will deliver on time and
with the expected quality over the next six months.), some persistent challenges remain. These are likely to affect production in 2024 and beyond. Greater use of digital tools, such as #digitaltwins and #AI, is urgently required to improve supply chain oversight and risk management. Yet only 6% are using #AI and advanced #analytics.
🔧Operational Challenges: However, 55% of executives are still relying on manual processes for supply chain monitoring and risk management. There’s a clear need forgreater adoption of digital tools to enhance #efficiency and #resilience.
✈️ Record Deliveries: 2023 saw significant increases in commercial aircraft deliveries, with Airbus up by 11%, Boeing by 10%, and Embraer by 13%. This trend is set to continue into 2024.
📈 Airlines and MRO Growth: #Airlines returned to profitability in 2023, with a projected 10% rise in profits for 2024. The #MRO sector is expected to achieve revenues 20% above their 2019 peak, driven by rising passenger numbers and fewer aircraft retirements.
🌐Geopolitical and Economic Concerns: Executives are increasingly concerned about #geopolitical #tensions and #economic #conditions impacting the
industry in the coming year and beyond.
