Perhaps no other industry is as sensitive to economic and political forces as aerospace and defense. Key trends defining the aerospace and defense industry today include:

  • Strong forecasted commercial aerospace deliveries are scheduled on the heels of record orders placed in recent years, driven largely by purchasers outside the U.S. However, record-breaking oil prices and concerns over the continued availability of financing represent potential headwinds for the industry.
  • The U.S. Defense Budget continues to soar. Nevertheless, defense contractors are experiencing forecasting difficulties resulting from dynamics related to the ongoing Global War on Terror, a potential U.S. withdrawal from Iraq, and an approaching presidential election.
  • Consolidation continues in the sector, as OEMs seek to reduce complexity by dealing with a smaller number of key players able to provide integrated systems, rather than thousands of independent suppliers.
  • Despite a robust current environment, the aerospace and defense industry remains cyclical and prone to “shock” events. 

In such a quickly changing and difficult environment, it is critical to remain competitive.  If you are a supplier looking for growth, liquidity, or seeking to make an acquisition or divestiture, we can help.
