Book A Competitive Assessment Of The U S  Civil Aircraft Industry

Download or read book A Competitive Assessment Of The U S Civil Aircraft Industry written by Theodore W Schlie and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-11-28 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1985, the U.S. aerospace industry achieved a $13.1 billion trade surplus and contributed $89.2 billion in shipments to the U.S. economy. Without·aerospace, the U.S. trade balance in high technology industries would--for the first time--have fallen into a deficit. Civil aircraft play a significant role in the U.S. aerospace industry, and U.S. civil aircraft have dominated world markets (particularly the large transport segment) since the development of jet engine aircraft in the 1950s. This dominance has recently been challenged by the emergence of the European Airbus Industrie, which has achieved a significant market position in wide-body aircraft and appears committed to the development of a diversified family of civil aircraft. Industry observers are also concerned about the possibility of Japan entering the large transport competition. In this assessment, the U.S. Department of Commerce examines the prospects for continued international competitiveness of U.S. civil aircraft. The report identifies key factors that will determine the shape of future competition, develops alternative scenarios for the future, and presents-a framework within which developments can be monitored and measured.

Book Market leadership in niche segments of the aviation industry  Customer integration and aircraft innovation by EMBRAER S A

Download or read book Market leadership in niche segments of the aviation industry Customer integration and aircraft innovation by EMBRAER S A written by Philip Hofbauer and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-04-12 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Operations Research, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Fulda, language: English, abstract: The thesis will examine how Embraer has gained a leading position in its market segment by matching product innovations to the demands of its customers, and how this position is likely to be defended in a highly-sensitive, capital-intense, hightechnology industry. Furthermore, the thesis will explore how decisions are made regarding the fleet composition of Embraer’s main customers and how their needs are integrated into Embraer’s business operations. The successful concepts of Embraer are primarily based on product families that can be offered for different markets. Thus, Embraer’s development and business practices can be critically evaluated with regard to other emerging nations, such as India and China, that will enter this or similar markets soon. As Embraer has different strategic business units in both civilian and defense markets, this thesis will focus primarily on the company’s operations in the commercial aircraft market. The second chapter of the thesis gives a short overview of the history of the aviation industry and its current situation. Chapter three shows the reader a detailed picture of particular markets and sub-markets where Embraer has operations, the state of the company, its products, and its history. The fourth chapter analyzes the primary market for Embraer, the forces of competition that occur in that market as well as the relationship between Embraer and competing stakeholders. The fifth and final chapter will describe how cost and other considerations shape airline fleet decisions, and how Embraer responds to the expectations of its main customers.

Book The Global Commercial Aviation Industry

Download or read book The Global Commercial Aviation Industry written by Sören Eriksson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a state-of-the-art overview of the changes and development of the civil international aircraft/aviation industry. It offers a fully up-to-date account of the international developments and structure in the aircraft and aviation industries from a number of perspectives, which include economic, geographical, political and technological points of view. The aircraft industry is characterized by very complex, high technology products produced in relatively small quantities. The high-technology requirements necessitate a high level of R&D. In no other industry is it more of inter-dependence and cross-fertilisation of advanced technology. Consequently, most of the world’s large aircraft companies and technology leaders have been located in Europe and North America. During the last few decades many developing countries have tried to build up an internationally competitive aircraft industry. The authors study a number of important issues including the political economy of the aircraft industry, globalization in this industry, innovation, newly industrializing economies and the aircraft industry. This book also explores regional and large aircraft, transformation of the aviation industry in Central and Eastern Europe, including engines, airlines, airports and airline safety. It will be of great value to students and to researchers seeking information on the aircraft industry and its development in different regions.

Book Deep Stall

    Book Details:
  • Author : Philip K. Lawrence
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2017-05-15
  • ISBN : 1351945858
  • Pages : 160 pages

Download or read book Deep Stall written by Philip K. Lawrence and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep Stall applies a framework of strategic analysis to the Boeing Company. Boeing is the world's largest aerospace / defence company, with turnover in the region of US $60bn. The book examines the relative decline of Boeing in the civil aircraft market in relation to European manufacturer, Airbus. The aim of the book is to utilize the concept of strategic value to explain Boeing's decline. The authors define this concept as investment in people and technology to leverage future market success by developing innovative new products, arguing that Boeing has neglected strategic value in favour of shareholder value, defined in terms of short-term cash benefits. The rationale for the book exists both in the fact that the story in itself is interesting and also in the wider framework of analysis concerning the correct strategic approach for running a high technology business. The argument illustrates what can happen when quarterly returns become the predominant strategic rationale for a company. In the U.S. the business media (Economist, Forbes, Fortune, and Business Week etc) are now focusing on the question of Boeing's decline and the major implications for the U.S. national interest. Boeing is one of the jewels in the US technology crown, but today U.S. jobs and capability are being exported abroad, with most of its aircraft program work based in Asia. This is a hot topic in the US which explains why the business media are now so interested in this question. The book sits squarely in the centre of this debate. Deep Stall concludes with a brief analysis of the recent fight-back that has been evident in Boeing's fortunes and the successful campaign to sell the new 787. The authors probe the question of whether Airbus or Boeing is likely to dominate in the next ten or fifteen years.

Book Marketing and Management in the High Technology Sector

Download or read book Marketing and Management in the High Technology Sector written by Domenico Ferreri and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2003-06-30 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aerospace industry has undergone tremendous change in recent years. Always something of an anomaly, due to its critical role in national economies and in national security, the sector has always been distinct from other manufacturing industries in its reliance on high-technology innovation and the shifting sands of private and public investment. Since the end of the Cold War, financial and other crises have led to a spate of mergers and acquisitions, leaving fewer and fewer players in the commercial airplane industry. Meanwhile, some firms exited the business altogether. State-owned companies have been privatized, national firms have been consolidated in some countries, and the first transnational aeronautics conglomerate in Europe, EADS, was founded in 1999. Those left standing must strive to exploit international alliances and their network of horizontal and vertical collaborations in order to gain long-term competitive advantage. How to harness both management strategies and marketing tactics to the cause in the commercial airplane industry is the subject of this book. Primary among the challenges faced by firms is industrial rationalization. How do corporate leaders who are charged with managing newly merged companies integrate distinct corporate cultures, rationalize operations and activities, and eliminate duplication of product and function, while maintaining their focus on gaining competitive advantage in the marketplace? The answer depends on the nature of the firm. Single-sector companies have the advantage of being lean, agile, and quick to react to market forces, while multisector companies have the potential to exploit synergistic relationships among divisions, economies of scale, financial strength, and the balancing of risk. These factors affect companies' behavior not only at the strategic level, but also at the tactical level. This book provides scholars of strategic marketing and management, as well as executives and decision makers in commercial aviation, with the industry background necessary to understand the aeropsace companies' struggle for survival in the newly restructured market.

Book Trends and Challenges in Aerospace Offsets

Download or read book Trends and Challenges in Aerospace Offsets written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1999-03-03 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The granting of offsets to promote exports of major aircraft systems has been a source of significant controversy. Critics believe that offsets undermine the U.S. manufacturing base; lead to the transfer of commercial technology, possibly affecting national security; and result in the loss of high-wage jobs. Defenders of the practice argue that offsets are a fact of commercial life and can result in net U.S. job gains. In an effort to focus the offsets debate on analytical issues, the White House National Economic Council asked the National Research Council to convene expert academicians, representatives from the aerospace industry, and top government officials to discuss the impact of offsets on the U.S. economy. To ensure a rigorous discussion encompassing all points of view, the conference included a series of papers outlining the positions of key participants. This resulting volume offers a comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of the impact of aerospace offsets.
