TIGHITCO, a leading aerospace manufacturing supplier, is pleased to announce the expansion of its Bombardier business jet statement of work at its Latin America facilities in Chihuahua, Mexico. This expansion comes as a result of the latest award from MHI Canada Aerospace (MHICA) to support sheet metal manufacturing for the Bombardier Global 5500/6500 and Challenger 350 aircraft platforms.

TIGHITCO holds a large breadth of OEM qualifications and supports both OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.

"We are excited to continue supporting Bombardier's business jet programmes and look forward to further strengthening our relationship with MHICA."
The company's state-of-the-art facilities, highly skilled workforce, and dedication to continuous improvement have made it a preferred supplier for many leading aerospace companies.
