Textron Inc. is a multi-industry company that operates heavily in the aerospace and defense sectors. While it owns a broad range of brands, most people will know them for Bell Helicopter and Cessna Aircraft, which together make up about 2/3 of their $13.2 billion in revenues last year.
Given the long life and technical nature of their products (it is not uncommon to see decades old Cessna's in service today), I am interested in looking at how IT can improve both the serviceability and reliability of their products during their lifespan.
In addition, I would like to explore how they can use IT to leverage the knowledge they have acquired about the performance of their products over time to help design new aircraft models and predict potential problems in existing ones.
I am still in the early stages of identifying other areas that IT may be better used within Textron, any ideas or suggestions that you may have would be appreciated.
