USAeroteam is a successful technology driven
Aerospace and Defense Manufacturer. Since we began in 1985, we have excelled in
several niches with our innovative and lean practices producing mostly single
sourced jet engine components, complex and specialized ground support equipment
and some industrial / auto components. We have been scoring 880 out of 880 points, #1 in its
class, in AS-9100 and ISO-QS-9000 audits by a third party registrar, over the last several
consecutive years. We have won numerous awards, including "the best of Midwest -
among top ten in the nation" by the U S Govt. with the flag of the nation flown over its
capital in our name - honor.
Our components are found on many GE, SNECMA and USAF Aircraft
Engines, and on Boeing, Northrop, Lockheed Martin and other aero-structures. We also make military Ground
Support Equipment for world wide friendly air forces. We are developing two other Jet engine
customers, Rolls Royce and Pratt & Whitney toward similar niche family of components, which will
enable us to be the niche supplier for all the four jet engine makers of the free world.
Our manufacturing business began as a supplier to the market
leader, Dayton Electric Lab Co (Delco/GM now Delphi- auto parts maker) and GEA- Jet Engine maker,
in their back yards in Dayton-Cincinnati, Ohio. We weaned away from domestic auto industry which was
75% of our business in 2003 and have established as a quality, on time supplier of jet engine components,
we have significant potential of becoming the market leader in our niche, due to better than Six Sigma
ZERO PPM deliveries. This is driven by our simplified TPS (Toyota Production System) based lean, empowered, total quality,
on time delivery team with an excellent track record of successes. In 2003-04 we went through a strategic reorganization
to address the cascading effect of the Delphi bankruptcy, and are focused on our rapid and solid growth in
the Aerospace - Defense industry, which has recovered very well after sad events of 9-11.
Continue to be the LEANEST U S Aerospace
company and create 1,000 new careers with
half of them for the Native Americans and
Indians by 2020.
