LeanDNA, a purpose-built analytics platform for factory inventory optimization and management, today announced a new partnership with Spirit AeroSystems. Spirit, the world's largest first-tier aerostructures manufacturer, will deploy LeanDNA's advanced analytics platform across five of its largest manufacturing sites.

"LeanDNA is thrilled to partner with Spirit AeroSystems to help them achieve their supply chain goals," said Richard Lebovitz, founder and CEO of LeanDNA. "Spirit's forward-thinking approach to supply chain transformation aligns with our belief that innovative technology is the key to advancing modern manufacturing."
