Industry
Defence & Aerospace
Defence and aerospace work brings precision forging and machining, demanding qualification, and supply bases chosen as much for approvals as for price.
The context
Qualification comes before price.
Approved special processes, traceability and qualification programmes decide who can supply at all. Volumes are low, documentation is heavy, and capability has to be demonstrated rather than claimed.
We help identify and develop Indian suppliers for parts where the process is well understood, such as forged and machined components, sheet-metal assemblies and fabrications, and we say plainly where a mandate needs approvals that cannot be shortcut.
Where we help
The work we do in Defence & Aerospace.
Supplier identification and qualification
Candidates found, screened and taken through a qualification path with named risks.
Should-cost for forging and precision machining
Input weight, yield, cycle times and inspection content rebuilt from the drawing.
Special-process and approval mapping
Which processes need approvals, who holds them, and what is missing.
Supplier development for process control
Documentation, traceability and process capability built up, not assumed.
Indigenisation and offset sourcing
Indian sources developed for parts currently imported.
Programme governance
Cost, quality and timing governed through qualification and first article.
The same categories, other industries
Sheet metal, forgings, castings, machining and electrical components serve all of these.
The process is the same; the standards, volumes and approvals change. Our specialists work across every industry below.
