This decision is a strategic choice for Airbus which needs to rely on a reference partner able to take an active part in its supply chain rationalization and able to contribute to a new engineering framework for structural analysis.
Dominique Lafond, Chief Executive Officer of Sogeti High Tech, concurs: "The high level specificity of this project requires strong proximity between teams of Sogeti High Tech and Airbus to achieve the highest standard in terms of service efficiency and reliability. We are proud that AIRBUS trusted us again to accompany it in this new contract which confirms Sogeti High Tech capacity to provide complete offers to its customers."
This contract represents a brand new perimeter for Sogeti High Tech which is now in charge of supporting and training all the Airbus Extended Enterprise regarding simulation tools and processes for structural analysis. It highlights Sogeti High Tech teams' experience and stateoftheart expertise based on:
- its strategic offerings in simulation, composites and testing,
- its knowhow in processes : training, service desk, transition management,
- its international presence and skills,
- its Rightshore® approach .
These activities are in the straightforward continuation of Sogeti High Tech's strategy to become a leading service provider for Airbus Computer Aided Engineering community.
