The Information Management (IM) Centre situated in Bengaluru is the backbone of Airbus’ Digital Transformation. The centre in Bengaluru has grown very steeply and is currently the 2nd largest IM Centre after the one at the headquarters in Toulouse, France.
Airbus began expanding its Information Management capabilities in India in 2018 to establish a Global Capability Centre that supports all divisions worldwide. Today, the centre focuses on in-sourcing core capabilities across four main dimensions:
- Modernising the core such as ERP and PLM systems to support the Aircraft Design Engineering activities, Airbus Manufacturing plants and Final Assembly Lines.
- Powering Digital capabilities such as Big Data, IoT, AI, Cloud Computing, Airline Sciences, Cyber Security & Innovation.
- Enabling strategic transformation initiatives such as DDMS and Skywise.
- IT Infrastructure support to Airbus centres in multiple countries.
The IM Centre is run by more than 1000 highly skilled IT professionals, collaborating with the local IT ecosystem and generating business opportunities of US$5 million annually. The IM Centre has tied up with Indian premier Institutes to collaborate on Research & Innovation. The centre uses virtual computing to reduce its carbon footprint. The IM center in India is built to cater to the needs of differently abled employees.
Airbus IM aims to grow in India following the vision of building the Information Management Systems and associated competencies that will enable Airbus to pioneer sustainable aerospace for a safe and united world.
