From Chaos to Clarity: How Solumina Transformed the McDonnell Douglas C-17 Program and Aerospace Manufacturing
iBase-t helped transform the McDonnell Douglas C-17 program by implementing the Solumina Manufacturing Execution System, which digitized and integrated previously siloed manufacturing processes. This solution streamlined engineering changes, work instructions, and quality control by providing real-time, traceable, and efficient shop floor execution. Solumina enabled the program to cut costs by $500 million, reduce delays, and improve production clarity, ultimately contributing to the program's success and industry recognition for manufacturing excellence.
