Velocity Composites forms service partnership with Wesco

This service offering, Wesco Composite Management Services, will initially be introduced in North America, and will utilise Wesco’s leading supply chain management expertise and Velocity’s innovative composite nesting, kitting and waste reduction services.

Jon Bridges, interim CEO and CTO of Velocity said: “As aircraft original equipment manufacturers demand higher productivity and production rates, this exciting service provision will transform how large, multi-national aerospace manufacturers procure and utilise composite raw materials and realise the opportunities of the industry, as they strive to remove waste and cost from their manufacturing processes.

“Our collaboration with Wesco Aircraft demonstrates how two complementary organisations can work together to bring a combined service offering to market in a way which delivers further benefits to customers and allows for a faster, more efficient roll out. The partnership will draw upon the strengths of both Wesco and Velocity by utilising our combined technologies as well as our existing customer relationships.

“We are excited to work with the team at Wesco to help potential new customers meet the challenges of waste reduction, rate readiness, process standardisation and stock management. We look forward to the partnership growing as Wesco Composite Management Services delivers customer benefits across North America, a new market for Velocity.”

Wesco and Velocity will be exhibiting at the Paris Airshow, and further information can be found on its stand in hall 4, stand D208.
