The aerospace industry's complex, multi-level supply chains face major challenges due to fragmented quality requirements, non-standardised data, proprietary formats and limited traceability. The lack of integrated digital solutions leads to inefficiencies, increased risks and higher costs as unqualified materials, processes and suppliers can enter the supply chain, jeopardising safety and regulatory compliance. With the ongoing trend towards high-volume production and an ever-growing number of supplier-customer relationships, there is an urgent need for a standardised, digital approach to ensure consistent quality management, improve traceability and build trust across the global aerospace ecosystem.
