Independent manufacturing due diligence for investors, industrial groups and companies evaluating an aerospace manufacturing project.
Before capital, equity or a partnership commits to an aerospace manufacturing project — a new facility, an acquisition target, a supplier qualification, or a joint venture — an independent, technically grounded view of what's actually being bought or backed is worth having. This is a third-party assessment, not a self-assessment: conducted directly by an engineer with 20+ years inside aerospace manufacturing operations, not a generic audit checklist.
The review is scoped to the decision at hand — a facility, a program, a supplier, or a full operation — and reports findings in terms an investment or executive committee can act on, not just a compliance score.
Scoped to the engagement — typically drawing from the following areas.
Framed around what a decision-maker needs to know before committing capital.
Can the operation produce the intended product?
Can it achieve the required production rate?
Can it support the certification requirements?
Can the workforce and processes scale?
Can critical processes be controlled?
Can it move from development to repeatable production?
A scoped, confidential process — not an open-ended audit.
Scope the Engagement
Define what's being evaluated and why — an acquisition, a facility standup, a supplier, or a program — and which of the areas above actually matter to the decision.
Review
Desk review of documentation and data, combined with on-site or on-call technical review where access allows — engineering, process, quality and workforce evidence, not self-reported claims alone.
Findings & Risk View
A findings report structured around what materially affects the decision — verified strengths, real gaps, and the industrialization or certification risks a non-specialist reviewer would likely miss.
Debrief
A direct walkthrough of the findings with the decision-makers — available for follow-up questions as the investment or executive process moves forward.
Independent of the target being assessed — no ownership stake, referral fee, or ongoing implementation commitment tied to the outcome of the review. Client identities and engagement details are held in confidence.
Evaluating a project or acquisition?
Request a confidential technical consultation to discuss scope, timeline and access requirements.
