Lab by BoostAeroSpace
A pillar dedicated to innovation and exploration in emerging fields
The digitization of the aerospace and defence supply chain demands innovation across multiple domains. Within AirLab, BoostAeroSpace collaborates with the community to explore promising technologies that enhance supply chain efficiency and resilience.
Areas of focus
Data & AI
Unmissable topic, AI is indeed at the heart of our toughts to enhance aero supply chain with automation, optimization and advanced analytics.
Blockchain & Traceability
Aero supply chain is decentralized by nature, hence we are investigating decentralized architectures that fit this design, enabling to consider full traceability.
CSR
Our industry being concerned about sustainability and facing economical challenges, we are looking for ways to harmonize CSR efforts at an industry level, for example working on Digital Product Passport.
Quantum computing
Looking ahead, we are exploring the potential impact of quantum computing on logistics and supply chains to ensure readiness when the technology matures.
Projects
AI for Aero Excellence
Aero Excellence is the standard of Operational Excellence, recognised by Aerospace and Defence community. Led by GIFAS and Space Aero, Aero Excellence platform is operated by BoostAeroSpace. In order to simplify and accelerate Aero Excellence deployment among supply chain, BoostAeroSpace led a project end of 2024 to study how GenAI could help the process. Working together with industrials, experts and CentraleSupélec students, a demonstrator has been delivered.
Partners: CentraleSupélec, JPB Système, Aresia, Space Aéro, Airbus, GIFAS
Chatbot for Aerospace & Defense
How can needs be better identified than by asking key stakeholders?
This is the main idea behind this initiative to create a chatbot able to discuss with A&D supply chain professionals, asking for their top pain points.
Datanomics
Involved in dataspace creation for Aerospace & Defense with multiple partners, BoostAeroSpace is working on governance and economic models aiming to incentivize dataspace participants to share their data.
Partners: Nicomatic Explorer, Ekitia
AI4SC
How can AI globally help supply chain management?
Over this simple question, BoostAeroSpace works to launch a project to demonstrate value of AI on concrete supply chain identified pain points, such as forecasting or optimization. More to come!
Partners: Aerospace Valley, Airbus Atlantic, IRT Saint Exupery
