Expectations & objectives

Standardization is

– Precondition for industrial collaboration

– Means for cost saving

– Benefit for our customer

– Source of proven technical knowledege

Standards should be

– Well recognized

– Worldwide available

– Applicable to mixed fleets

– Reliable – Attractive to be used by other airframers

The standardization process should be

– Global

– Industry driven

– Transparent and consensus-based

but

– Quick and cheap

The Airbus corporate policy regarding product standards includes,

e.g.:

maximum use of standard parts

maximum degree of standardization

variety shall be minimized

GovernanceGovernance ofof externalexternal StandardsStandards

Management of external product standards (industry, government,

national and international) within Airbus

Operational Standardization is the Airbus “owner” for external

product standards

Airbus develops, manages & authorizes external product standards

the same way as the company standards

The related infrastructure is centralized, but there is no special

organization for external standards

Airbus coordination process: see page 16

ParticipationParticipation inin externalexternal StandardsStandardsDevelopmentDevelopment

Airbus participations in external standards development activities is

managed as follows:

Participants to Technical Committees are nominated by

Standardization or by the relevant technical department

Participants to Steering Committees are nominated by the operational

Standardization / technical departments concerned

Visibility of employees participating to external standardization

activities is ensured through a central data base

Airbus Members participate currently to approximately

60 Standardization Committees

Standardization Benefits

• Homogeneous products

• Basis for communication (across design centres and functions)

• Approved solutions for recurring tasks

• Reduced variety for (Purchase, Storage, Manufacturing andSpares)

• Available standards provide immediately a proven solution

• Standard parts (family parts) are cheaper to produce/assemble


20/30




Day to Day Issues

• Development times shortening

• Proven solutions can be antagonist to new technologies

• Various design activities and individual needs

• Harmonization can be a compromise

Rationalization and Lessons Learned

Use an A/C top down approach to analyze the different

requirements and installation cases…

Nose

Wings

Boxes

Fuselage

Empennage

… and decide on a harmonized design principles and

opportunities to innovate

New concepts can save more than 80% of the installation

time and up to 70% of the total number of parts
