“Our model encompasses comprehensive turnkey purchasing and supply management services and tailored custom solutions for long- or short-term needs,” said Brian Dannewitz, M7 Aerospace v-p of supply chain management. “We become a fully integrated extension of our customer’s business processes, adapting and executing to the changing environment to fit their requirements. We can substantially reduce indirect expense and increase cost savings for virtually any materials management operation.”
