Maximizing Aerospace & Defense Opportunities through Cost and Reliability Analytics

With volatile geopolitics, uncertain budgets and complex supply chains, defense and aerospace companies need insights to navigate uncertainties that can negatively impact bottom lines and shareholder value.

From Airplanes and Spacecraft to Tanks and Drones, Lumivero Helps Push the Boundaries of What’s Possible.

Lumivero provides software solutions that leading aerospace firms and defense contractors use for robust analytics such as Monte Carlo simulation, optimization, decision trees, sensitivity analysis, and predictive data analysis all in Microsoft Excel and without requiring a statistical analytics degree.

Defense agencies are under pressure to adopt technologies that minimize the risk to soldiers while simultaneously accounting for uncertain long-term funding. Furthermore, space exploration is characterized by more involvement from the private sector than ever before, while technological innovation continues at an unprecedented pace. Satellite programs and exploration missions require cooperation between governments and private companies and are vulnerable to cost overruns and schedule delays. New technologies such as hypersonics and hydrogen-powered aircraft promise exciting opportunities coupled with tremendous unknowns.

Supply Chain Management

A reliable supply chain is critical for aerospace and defense contractors, and even a slight delay or shortfall can have massive ramifications. With Lumivero’s software solutions, firms can optimize multiple suppliers to minimize failure points and maximize the probability of deliveries, as well as identify high-risk areas in the supply chain that require mitigation strategies.
