System integration and validation for Airbus
Your challenge :
All new aircraft equipment, including navigation, radio-navigation, monitoring and flight management systems, has to be validated and certified before deployment. Airbus conducts both lab tests on the ground and in-flight tests, a complex process that constantly evolves to keep pace with extremely demanding safety standards. The certification process can therefore take several years, particularly since these systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated. The challenge for Airbus is shortening the development cycle for new programs, while at the same time optimising its dollar-denominated production costs. To meet this latter goal, some of the tests are conducted in Bangalore, India.
Our added value :
The Assystem team assigned to the project comprises more than 170 people who deliver value added through a holistic support process. We prepare the tests, test facilities, laboratory validation and integration, and flight testing to ensure the various systems perform as required. We also conduct and analyse performance, aerodynamic, vibration and acoustic tests. Since 2010, Assystem has also been supporting Airbus’ offshoring policy through a team based in Bangalore.
