Bombardier is a Canadian engineering company that manufactures planes and trains, employing 75,000 people worldwide. It has two main departments, Bombardier Aerospace and Bombardier Transportation, which generated $16.4 billion and $18.2 billion in revenues respectively. Bombardier has a location in Bruges, Belgium with around 1,000 employees, where the future depends on an order from Belgium's national railway company. While Bombardier saw revenues increase to $18.2 billion by 2012, earnings per share remained modest at $0.33 per share that year.
1. Bombardier is a Canadian company specialized in aerospace and transportation industries. It has two main business units: aircraft and trains.
2. The aircraft business is facing difficulties with the CSeries program signing fewer contracts than expected. The train business is performing better with contracts in Asia.
3. Bombardier's strategic model focuses on mobility solutions, local presence in key markets, and customer satisfaction. For aircraft, it offers commercial and business jets but the CSeries program is struggling.
1. The document discusses through-life costs, which are the total costs of owning an aircraft over its lifetime, including acquisition, maintenance, fuel and personnel costs. It notes that customers are increasingly asking manufacturers like Airbus to consider through-life costs in aircraft design.
2. Airbus is taking several initiatives to address through-life costs, such as collaborating on integrated wing and life cycle cost modeling projects. These aim to better evaluate how new technologies impact overall costs.
3. Balancing performance improvements with implementation costs will be important for future designs to meet environmental and resource constraints while remaining affordable over the long run.
The document summarizes information about the Airbus A380 airliner. It was first flown in 2005 and is primarily used by Emirates and Singapore Airlines. Key details include:
- It has two decks and seats 555 passengers in a typical three-class configuration.
- It has a maximum speed of 1,050 km/h and maximum altitude of 43,000 feet.
- The A380 provides 50% more floor space than other airliners and uses four Rolls Royce Trent 900 engines.
- It offers passengers more comfort with wider seats and legroom compared to other aircraft types.
Emirates provides high quality commercial air transport with an all wide-body Airbus and Boeing fleet. It has grown from a small subsidiary to a worldwide brand through innovation, strategic alliances, and superior customer service. The airline has built a strong brand through new fleets, multinational staff, and premium customer service. However, it needs to address weaknesses like ignoring regional competition and massive fleet expansion by considering local operators and becoming a shareholder in aircraft manufacturers. Declining fuel prices will benefit Emirates by allowing reduced ticket and seat prices due to lower operating costs.
This document provides an overview of Kingfisher Airlines, an Indian airline based in Mumbai. It discusses the airline's history, services offered, fleet, network, finances, human resources strategy, marketing strategy using the 4 P's framework, and SWOT analysis. Key points include that Kingfisher started operations in 2005 and was awarded 5-star status, it served over 70 cities domestically and internationally, and pursued strategies like a new frequent flyer program and cost controls to improve performance. The summary discusses the airline's offerings and strategies at a high level.
Airbus and Boeing have been involved in a fierce duopoly in the large jet airliner market since the 1990s. Airbus began as a European consortium while the American Boeing absorbed its former arch-rival, McDonnell Douglas in a 1997 merger
Manufacturers like Lockheed Martin, Convair and Fairchild Aircraft in the United States and British Aerospace and Fokker in Europe withdrew from the market as they were no longer in a position to compete effectively
Over the years, competition has been intense; each company regularly accuses the other of receiving unfair state aid from their respective governments.
