The World is Changing

Economic, technological and social changes are transforming markets and the business environment for technical and aerospace industries. Global competition and new partnership models: Shared risk

and shared value. Networks replacing hierarchy: Virtual teams, geo-distributed. Customer expectations: integrated & increased functionality;

customization & delight. Complexity: Products and relationships in new financial

structures.

Engineering Challenges

Creating new products and services requires the alignment and collaboration of ever more complex and creative combinations of people, technology and expertise. Managing costs of new programs and products. Integrating global supply networks. Balancing technical and financial decisions. Developing the necessary skills and competence. Technology is not the ‘Silver Bullet.’

To Compete in the Future

Technical professionals must be systems thinkers, combining their domain expertise with systems engineering skills while understanding the business aspects of success in the global environment.

They must be able to operate productively in virtual, multi-cultural teams and work effectively with complex problems.

We must reduce the time lag between learning and applying the knowledge in an integrated business environment.
