The Supply Chain and Logistics sector is one of the most important to our industry and has the potential to greatly affect organisational profitability, efficiency and passenger satisfaction. A properly structured and well managed supply chain and logistics construct can be the difference between profitable day to day operations and efficient on time departures as opposed to struggling with flight schedules and P+L performance. The need to have parts and materials where they are required and when has never been more important in our fast growing and ever competitive industry. CFO’s and CEO’s now have a need for airlines and MRO’s to keep balance sheet assets optimised and well utilised, this again points to top notch Supply Chain and Logistics arrangements.
