The Boeing Company: Program Leadership

A Revolution in Flight Testing

VISION

Complete the mission-critical flight test for Boeing's 787 Dreamliner—the first major airliner to use composite materials for most of its construction.

BREAKTHROUGH

Transforming a manual workflow to a fully automated process that improves the way the airplane configuration is managed during testing. The process now supports a new, more efficient flight test methodology for all Boeing commercial airplanes—the final step between manufacturing and delivery.

VALUE

By revolutionizing the ability to coordinate teams and conduct more flight tests for more airplane fleets at once, Boeing is able to bring new technology to market more quickly and deliver more than $140 billion in orders.
