Transforming processes and results
As they continuously strive to improve operational performance, aerospace and defense manufacturers must master their highly complex supply chains while realizing the potential of advanced technologies and materials.
We help companies identify and seize opportunities to transform performance across their business – from streamlining processes and supply chain costs to steering and funding innovation, achieving tax efficiency and empowering people.
We help clients secure their position, accelerate growth and anticipate future challenges.
A holistic approach
We are a trusted partner, providing expert advice that boosts operational efficiency, supports innovation and empowers people to perform.
With consultants supporting clients in countries across the globe, we have a proven track record of creating valuable returns.
Anticipating threats and opportunities
We tailor our solutions to your exact needs, drawing on a suite of proven capabilities in a range of areas, including:
Operations performance
Procurement and the management of complex, international supply chains are fundamental to the performance of aerospace and defense businesses.
Managing innovation
Litvin Muir not only re-engineers processes, but we also help companies manage innovation strategically and sustain their investment in innovation.
Each year our consultants secure millions of dollars in tax credits for spending on research and development. They compile and manage claims in support of hundreds of projects annually, in multiple tax jurisdictions.
By fueling further innovation, recovering these costs gives aerospace and defense companies a competitive advantage as they exploit new technologies and materials, advanced manufacturing techniques, and big data.
Streamlining tax costs
Tax is a burden on any business. The complexity posed by multiple taxes – from real estate to VAT/GST, environmental and energy to local and sector taxes – makes it harder to manage that burden.
However, as with other costs in operations or procurement, increasing tax efficiency can unlock savings and drive competitive advantage.
Our tax specialists work within multidisciplinary teams to analyze your position and identify opportunities to reduce liabilities, recover tax and maximize credits. Litvin Muir services range from the recovery of VAT from tax authorities in more than 50 countries and managing compliance to optimizing tariffs on imported goods.
Empowering people
Employees need to be fully engaged and committed to the goals of the business. People management processes, rewards, and training must be fit for this greater purpose. So they should also foster collaboration, break down organizational silos and promote a culture of transparency and innovation.
We develop both technical and soft skills and provide smart digital services and training for thousands of employers. Drawing on this experience and our RightFunding™ approach, our expert teams ensure that people and procedures are attuned to each other and business strategy.
We invest in your human capital – enhancing commitment, quality of life at work, change management, and employee health and well-being. We are transforming HR management with our focus on ROI, digitization, and compliance.
Digitization
Growing supply chains, supplier collaboration, customer information and the general digitization of business are generating unprecedented volumes of data. This is in addition to the terabytes of data gathered from aircraft sensors.
We integrate data science and expert analysis to extract value from data.
We help clients use decision-support technologies (such as AI and machine learning), digital tools and automated processes to leverage the power of big data and increase efficiency.
We also support companies as they build in-house expertise through our data lab management service and guide their selection of technology partners that best meet their needs.
