ThyssenKrupp Extends Deal with Cessna

ThyssenKrupp Aerospace North America has entered into a three-year contract extension with Cessna Aircraft Co. to remain its provider for aluminum sheet products and other supply chain services.

 

The company will service Cessna’s facilities in Wichita, Kan., as well as Cessna’s key subcontractors throughout North America. The just-in-time deliveries and value-added services will be supported from its existing facility in Hutchinson, Kan. 

 

“This new contract serves to illustrate our close relationship with one of the premier general and business aviation manufacturers in the world,” says Jeff Luckasavage, president of ThyssenKrupp Aerospace North America. “We look forward to working with Cessna on lowering their material distribution costs and continuing to partner on creative ways to simplify their supply chain.”

 

“Cessna is excited to have such a strong relationship with a partner like ThyssenKrupp, as evidenced by the contract extension announcement” says Justin Salmans, Cessna vice president of supply chain management. “We look forward to ThyssenKrupp continuing to play a key role in the Cessna supply chain moving into the future.”
