Developing a digital ecosystem

Airbus is leveraging digital advanced technologies to revolutionise how we design, produce and operate our products.. We are adapting our production facilities and industrial ecosystem to embrace digital methods and are accelerating the integration of smart manufacturing, known as industry 4.0, into our operations.

Our company-wide programme, called DDMS (Digital Design Manufacturing and Services), sets new industry standards that aim at interconnecting the various platforms and increasing data exchange, resulting in improved and more efficient collaboration.

In tandem, we are exploring how artificial intelligence, quantum technologies, advanced analytics and connectivity can solve design, manufacturing and operation challenges.

This digital revolution is taking place at every level of operations within Airbus, driving innovation and excellence throughout our ecosystem. It encourages teams to embrace digital tools, streamline processes, enhance efficiency and revolutionise production methods. It plays a key role in achieving our ambition of pioneering sustainable aerospace for a safe and united world.
