Applied Dynamics International (ADI), a global leader in aviation innovation and digital engineering, has been named JetZero's first-ever Supplier of the Year, recognizing ADI's outstanding partnership, performance, and commitment to the success of JetZero's advanced all-wing aircraft program.

The award celebrates ADI's exceptional spirit of partnership, the successful establishment of JetZero's Systems Integration Labs (SIL), and the company's seamless on-site and remote technical support throughout the program's development milestones. ADI's dedication to performance, agility, and collaboration has helped JetZero meet critical objectives on schedule and within budget, while navigating one of the most ambitious aircraft development programs in modern aviation.

"ADI has been more than a supplier to JetZero; they've been a real partner in our success," said Lisa Ousley, JetZero's head of Supply Chain. "ADI has consistently exceeded our expectations. Their commitment to innovation and seamless support embodies the spirit of partnership that defines JetZero's supplier ecosystem. We're proud to recognize ADI as our first-ever Supplier of the Year and look forward to continued success together."

JetZero recognized ADI's exceptional performance to contracts, its proactive technical problem-solving, and its flexible commercial approach during critical development phases.

"JetZero has a very impressive supplier base and we are deeply honored to be acknowledged. The most valuable aviation innovation demands an agile and adaptable approach to technology partnership and we strive to exceed expectations in this regard," said Scott James, ADI President & CEO.

The recognition follows a year of significant progress on the Z4 all-wing demonstrator, including major milestones achieved at JetZero's Flying Qualities Lab (FQL) and Integration Test Facility (ITF), both established and operated using ADI's ADEPT digital engineering platform. ADI's collaboration enables real-time integration and testing across globally distributed teams, combining remote and physical environments to accelerate development and reduce program risk.

"Our partnership with JetZero reflects ADI's commitment to helping innovative OEMs solve for time through connected lab environments, advanced simulation, and agile support models," added James. "We're proud to play a role in helping JetZero realize its vision for next-generation aviation."
