Supply chain management expert Incora has been awarded a multi-year contract to further extend the scope of supply and continue the partnership with AVIC Group and its subsidiary Xi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporation on the COMAC C919 platform. Under the contract, Incora will deliver a suite of supply chain solutions, including Just-in-Time product delivery facilitated through Incora on-site personnel in Xi'an, extending an existing scope of supply to incorporate new product ranges.
The COMAC C919 is the latest generation of narrow-body airliners in the market, developed by Chinese aircraft manufacturer COMAC. As the program matures and increases its market share with airlines in the region, Incora says it is poised and ready to play a vital role in helping COMAC to achieve its goals.
Said Glenn Puddifoot, Vice President Sales Business Development: “We are immensely honored to be entrusted with supplying the largest proportion of items amongst all of AVIC Group's partners. It is a testament to our ability to provide customized, complex supply chain solutions to meet our customers' operational needs. We look forward to deepening and strengthening our existing partnership with AVIC Group and XAIC in the years to come. I want to thank the entire Incora team across our global footprint for their work in supporting this process.”
This contract win will further bolster Incora's presence in the Asia Pacific region, which is a key driver in the company's growth plans. Incora has recently been awarded multiple renewals on existing programs by key strategic customers across the Asia Pacific region.
