Honda Aircraft Tooling Solution
Honda Aircraft Company, a subsidiary of Honda Motor Company, has developed the Honda Jet, a small, personal jet with a claimed 20% better fuel efficiency than other designs.
Overview
One of the projects I worked on here was a tooling solution to help them with an automated release process, classification library, and updated data model for increased efficiency.
Challenges
- They bought a pelthora of comercial off the shelf (COTS parts), but had a difficult time reusing them due to issues finding them.
- They needed a release procedure for their parts.
Solutions
- I built a classification system including taxonomy, custom icons, and migrated 1010 classification parts.
- I setup change management utilizing an item revision definition configuration (IRDC).
