Aircraft Design to Operational Cost

Abstract

The method that will be presented to you is used on Airbus products. The aim of this presentation is to give you an overview and some indications on the process and the associated tools that we have developed to ensure that the design of our products is coherent with the operators expectations in term of operational costs. The presentation will first show the evolution of the market and of the operators expectations that drove the emergence of the Integrated Logistic Support concept. This will be followed by a description of how we have adapted this concept in a very pragmatic procedure applicable to military transport as well as commercial aircraft design. The five steps of the procedure will then be detailed. An overview of the existing tools and of the environment in which this procedure is applied will follow.
