Trigo Group wins Airbus tender

TRIGO Group has been awarded a contract by Airbus, and will provide comprehensive inspection of aircraft cabin elements for the Pan-European aircraft manufacturer for the upcoming years.

Due to the continuous technical and commercial improvement of air transport, as well as the liberalization of the aviation sector, key players of aeronautics need to adapt themselves to a highly competitive business climate. In order to remain on the cutting edge, aircraft manufacturers have to comply with zero-defect quality demands—not only from technical and safety aspects, but also on the production and assembly of cosmetic parts.

Airbus, a world leading aircraft manufacturer, issued a tender which TRIGO Qualitaire, TRIGO Group's Aerospace Business Line, has successfully competed in, and gained commission to deliver comprehensive quality control solutions to protect the conformity of Airbus's cabin-assembly.

“Basically, the tender's parameters cover the inspection of aircraft cabin elements mainly on European sites. However, TRIGO is also expected to provide on-demand control missions to global suppliers from a multitude of geographies worldwide,” said Emmanuel Marquis, TRIGO Group's Aerospace Business Line Director.

Cabin quality is becoming a key element in supplier selection, as amongst passengers, cabin comfort is often the first criterion for airline loyalty. In order to satisfy high customer demands, TRIGO—with more than 50 engineers and inspectors—will deliver 100% quality to support Airbus in the control of cabin elements, such as: galleys, lighting, seats, safety equipment, in-flight entertainment, lavatories, and hand luggage compartments.

“TRIGO's strength is the ability to execute transnational contracts through its global fleet of aerospace quality experts, who, with an impressive record of project experience, are always ready to deploy for on-demand missions even on remote supplier sites. I believe that winning this tender is a milestone for TRIGO, and after the successful implementation of our expertise, it will open doors for us to realize further strategic business developments,” added Mr. Marquis.
