Supply Chain Metrics That Matter: A Focus on Aerospace & Defense Companies 2017Lora Cecere
Executive Overview
A concentrated industry with few players, Aerospace & Defense (A&D) is unique. While demand in the Aerospace industry is relatively stable, the Defense Industry is volatile. Driven by technology innovation, success lies in the integration of R&D processes into the end-to-end supply chain. The A&D supply chain is largely a story of supply chain excellence in procurement and sourcing strategies. With a dependency on scarce materials, and sole-sourcing strategies, the industry fights to survive.
Government spending drives the defense supply chain. Companies in this industry compete for government contracts that range from hundreds of millions to billions of dollars. The magnitude of these contracts defines winners and losers for the industry. Demand is lumpy and volatile. Companies such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing have had a long-lasting relationship with the government re defense spending, but they live contract by contract. In contrast, the commercial aircraft side is much different. It is driven by long-term economic trends
Government ups the ante for the latest and best technology for global defense. As the technology in jets, weapons, and missile-defense systems continues to advance, the supply chain becomes more complex with increasing pressures on driving innovation. To better understand the industry in relation to supply chain management, let’s start by looking at it within the larger context of the A&D value network. Growth is increasing, margins are decreasing, and longer cash-to-cash cycles are increasing working capital. In Table 1, we share the trends and metrics progress on the Supply Chain Metrics That Matter. These charts are set up to take a hard look at value chains. To understand the table, let’s take a look at the data. For the period of 2010-2016 the average growth of the industry was 4%. However, if the year-over-year growth rate of 2016 is compared to 2010, the growth rate is down 19% in a year-by -year comparison. The red arrows represent a negative trend while the green arrow represents a positive trend. Notice within this value chain that most of the arrows are red. While the industry is more dependent on software and computer hardware, there has been little collaboration to drive value between trading partners. Also note that this industry has the longest Cash-to-Cash cycles of any that we have studied, and the impact of lengthening payables in government spending resulted in a 12% increase in Cash-to-Cash with an average days of Cash-to-Cash of 152.

In this report, we take a detailed look at elements of the metrics portfolio, and then wrap up with excerpts from annual reports to enable the reader to understand the “voice” of the industry.

The global third-party risk management market generated revenue of US$ 3.2 billion in 2020 and is expected to reach US$ 6.5 billion by 2025 with a CAGR of 15.1% in the forecast period. The third-party risk management market report offers a comprehensive market analysis of the different segments and regions that lets readers make crucial business-related decisions with a wealth of information enclosed in this report.
In producing this research whitepaper Target Group asked 100 marketing
professionals at middle manager level and above working in the insurance
industry (i.e. insurers, underwriters, aggregators and distributors) what
their hopes, plans, fears were for the industry in the future. It became clear
that most felt that an ‘innovation wave’ driven by the four D’s of dynamic
products, distribution patterns, data and disruptive new technology was
on its way and that it would have a signifi cant impact on the future
direction of insurance when it comes to providers, products and routes to
market.
Target’s survey shows that while almost all insurers continue to develop
new products and services, just one in five (19%) consistently bring them
to market quickly enough to keep pace with market change. This is a
dangerous position for an industry on the crest of an “innovation wave”
that could rival that brought by the adoption of the computer in the 1960s.
Telematics, wearable devices, big data, car collision sensors, the Internet
of things: these developments are fundamentally altering the market’s
future. The question is whether they will be led by the existing players in the
industry, or by industry challengers.
Contribution to panel discussion of the key changes to be expected in the insurance industry over the next five years from technology to product development.

Navigating the Social Network: The Air Force Guide to Effective Social Media UseDouglas Burdett
Defense contractors who adopt topflight social media policies and best practices can raise their profile, motivate supporters, counter detractors, recruit top talent and grow their business.
Defense contractors can grow their business by raising their company’s profile, participating in “virtual trade show breakout rooms,” positioning themselves as experts, generating quality leads and making direct contact with key decision makers.
With the right planning, defense contractors can use trade shows to speed up the sales cycle, reduce the cost of sales, and reach customers, prospects and even “hidden buyers.”
Defense contractors who are able to adjust their marketing and sales to what matters most to their prospects can shorten their sales cycle, increase sales and repeat purchases, and attain greater profitability by becoming a preferred vendor.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt. Maar met die kansen ontstaan ook vragen: Zelf retail media worden of erop adverteren? In welke fase van de funnel past het en hoe integreer je het in een mediaplan?

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Defense outlook 2015: A global
survey of defense-industry executives
In December 2012, we surveyed a small group of
senior executives from leading aerospace and
defense companies around the globe, 20 in total, to
the next three years hold? We invited executives
to share their views on topics such as market
outlook and overall trends, industry restructuring,
and growth prospects. About three-quarters
of the executives surveyed were C-level leaders at
their organization—CEO, COO, CFO, CMO, or
president—while the others were vice presidents or
general managers. Our sample was geograph-
ically diverse, with two-thirds of executives from
Europe and the Middle East;; one-third were
from the Americas. Most lead companies or divi-
sions with at least $5 billion in revenues.
Today’s leading defense executives offer their insights.
Respondents agreed on many topics, especially
the somber outlook for global defense spending.
With only one exception, executives see global
spending declining over the next three years. They
see the defense industry changing, and they
are all taking measures to adapt. Leaders are
preparing to meet the challenge of evolving
customer needs, especially the quest for affordable
products, and expect to be active in corporate
in international markets such as India and
the Middle East. Finally, executives see growth
potential in commercial aerospace, services,
unmanned systems, and cybersecurity, with inter-
esting differences of opinion on the relative
attractiveness of these opportunities.

A shrinking market
When asked about the outlook for the global
market, the near-universal expectation is for a
decline, but executives disagree on the extent
market revenues will decrease between 1 and
20 percent. The rest expect something
in between.
We also asked respondents about the outlook
in the markets in which they are active, and found
and the Middle East were seen by most as pockets
of moderate growth, offsetting moderate to
America. South America and Africa were largely
predicted to either remain the same or have
slight increases (Exhibit 1).
To understand how regional shifts might affect
the nature of global competition, we questioned
executives about the decline in defense
spending in established markets and the rise
in emerging markets. Would this shift in
spending be accompanied by a commensurate
shift in the structure of the industry? Would
new globally competitive players emerge,
Exhibit 1 Expected changes in defense spending vary for
different regions of the world.

When we asked respondents what changes they
would like to see in government defense
procurement, many cited a desire for greater
tion of processes, and more open dialogue and
collaboration. Respondents also hoped for
a clearer strategy backed by a long-term plan, and
for increasing consistency. One executive
wrote that government should “truly embrace
commercial practices, especially in manu-
facturing—and move away from congressionally
hoped that government would “make it simpler
of the industrial base and allow consolidation
executive said a desired change would be “more
open collaboration between industry and
departments of defense early in the requirements
and acquisition process. The littoral combat
ship, for all its warts, can provide a model for
three-fourths of respondents expect an increase
in the rate at which defense companies will
using their lower cost structures as a spring-
board to global prominence? Almost two-thirds of
respondents—admittedly, mostly from more
established markets—said they did not expect to
see a new competitive global player emerge;;
instead they thought that companies in emerging
markets would continue to function mainly
as low-cost manufacturers or suppliers. If any
of these companies do manage to emerge as
tions for the global industry structure.
The changing nature of
the defense business
The survey results make it clear that defense-
industry leaders believe their companies must
change the way they do business;; the ques-
tion is how to do it. Almost all survey respondents
believe that defense customers will change
their focus from procuring the systems with the
highest possible performance to ones that
are more affordable. However, only two-thirds of
the defense-industry executives surveyed
think that defense suppliers will be able to change
their internal processes to deliver more afford-
able, rather than exquisite, products.

is how to do it.

manage their portfolio of businesses in the next
one to three years, with over three-fourths of
respondents expecting their companies to engage
in mergers and acquisitions, while almost
two-thirds expect their companies to divest some
part of their current portfolio.
The search for growth opportunities
Given the downturn in many major markets,
growth opportunity is more important than
ever. Almost all said that their companies will
pursue increased international growth in
the next three years. When we asked the executives
to name the most attractive markets outside
their current focus, a majority noted interest in
India, Brazil, and the Middle East, followed
by the United States (Exhibit 2).
Industry leaders also shared their apprehensions
about the challenges of international growth.
Many voiced concerns about export controls
in Arms Regulations, suggesting these are a
struggle with decreasing budgets. Respon-
dents also cited cultural issues, such as “lack of
management experience working outside the
for a “change of mind-set from top management,
potential barriers to international growth. One
industry executive said that “apart from
some huge international programs such as the
F-35 Joint Strike Fighter program, much of
the defense contracting is kept in country, with

Four sectors were cited as showing the most
space, services, unmanned systems, and
cybersecurity (Exhibit 3).
Each of these growth opportunities comes with
unique challenges and concerns. With respect to

When we asked respondents how they expected

toward commercial. Only a handful predicted
a bias toward defense, with the others
expecting portfolios to balance.
Services, the second most anticipated source of
growth, was cited by three-fourths of respondents
to generate a larger share of their companies’
revenues. Executives note challenges for service
growth include recruiting, how to create
value, the procurement process, competition from
government, insourcing by military customers,
and customer resistance.
