Product lifecycle
Our Product Innovation Lifecycle process ensures we take a holistic approach to creating economic, environmental and social benefits - from the design and manufacture of our products to their end-of-life. This approach is aligned with global sustainable mobility goals for safe, efficient, accessible and environmentally friendly air transport solutions.
Every Bombardier product – including the Global 7500 aircraft – goes through our Product Innovation Lifecycle. This five-step process ensures we’re innovating at every stage, which allows us to exceed customer expectations and produce the most sustainable and high-performing mobility solutions.
The 5 stages
1. DESIGN
We consider safety, environment, accessibility and efficiency in the design phase of our product lifecycle, enabling us to develop innovative mobility solutions.
2. SUPPLY CHAIN AND PRODUCTION
We undertake a rigorous supplier selection process to ensure we source the best materials and technologies to bring our designs to life.
3. MANUFACTURING AND TESTING
We integrate health, safety and environment at every stage of the manufacturing process and conduct rigorous product testing to ensure high performance.
4. PRODUCT USE AND MAINTENANCE
We actively engage with our customers to ensure a safe and accessible passenger experience and the best environmental performance.
5. END-OF-LIFE
We are working closely with industry organizations, researchers and suppliers to achieve 100% recoverability of all new products.
