Tailored Support for a Sustainable Knowledge Management Strategy

Building a comprehensive technical reference framework involves much more than just saving data. It requires an intimate understanding of complex aerospace design constraints, the day-to-day realities of design engineers across different regional cultures, and a data architecture built for long-term scalability. BASSETTI partnered closely with AIRBUS Helicopters to navigate this digital transformation by delivering:

A pragmatic methodology
A highly flexible software package
The expertise required

Driving Helicopter Design Performance Through Centralized Data

AIRBUS Helicopters utilizes TEEXMA to structure its critical engineering rules, creating a highly dependable, scalable, and sustainable repository for engineering teams.

Challenges

  • Traditional document management and collaborative portals could not meet their specific requirements.
  • Centralizing critical invariants to ensure seamless transmission of lessons learned from one program to another.
  • Facilitating competence of new engineers to design helicopters according to the rules of the art.
  • Accelerating the development of multiple helicopters simultaneously while cutting focus time.

Results

  • Integrating a task-and-rule architecture that maps out exactly what needs to be learned to design properly and how to apply it.
  • Moving past basic document portals to make engineering guidelines fully actionable, dynamic, and searchable by technical fields.
  • Optimizing design workflows by enforcing an rigorous expert-led validation loop, ensuring the absolute legitimacy of all entered knowledge.
  • An assessment and pilot process rooted in progressive rollout phases across fifteen departments to thoroughly guarantee team adoption.
