On-time Performance Delivery Acheived within 4 Months

A Tier 1 aerospace manufacturer launched a new production assembly location, introducing advanced systems and processes that deviated from legacy operations. While these changes were designed to improve efficiency, the entirely new operating environment created challenges in system adoption, data accuracy, and overall operational stability. Leadership recognized the need for structured post-implementation stabilization to repair integration issues at the new location.

The challenge

Adonis Partners’ expert consultants began by identifying the root causes of instability. These included limited organizational knowledge transfer, minimal aerospace experience among newly hired employees, and a lack of understanding around data dependencies and correlations across systems. Management had focused on deploying common off-the-shelf applications without sufficient process support or stabilization planning.

These gaps resulted in unreliable data, inconsistent execution, and reduced confidence in system outputs during early operations.

The stabilization approach

Once the issues were clearly defined, Adonis Partners designed a targeted system and process stabilization approach.

A new metric system was developed to align data dependencies, assign clear data ownership, and establish consistent reporting intervals. Visual controls were introduced to increase transparency and reinforce accountability, ensuring that system performance issues were visible and addressed quickly.

This structured approach helped stabilize both the technical systems and the operational processes supporting them.

The impact

Within three months, the operation was stabilized. Bill of Material accuracy improved from 83% to over 98%. On-time performance recovered fully, reaching 100% within four months. Supplier shortages, which had previously disrupted production, were completely eliminated within six months.

By embedding data-driven decision-making, accountability, and clear system ownership, Adonis Partners helped the aerospace manufacturer achieve long-term operational resilience, reliable system performance, and a stable foundation for future growth.
