Hawker Beechcraft Awards Contract to CDG, a Boeing Company

CYPRESS, Calif., Feb. 1, 2011– Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC) has awarded a multi-year contract to CDG, a Boeing Company to provide technical publication services. Following an analysis and RFP process, CDG was awarded the contract to provide technical publications for the HBC fleet of general aviation aircraft.

HBC, a world-leading manufacturer of business, special-mission and trainer aircraft is headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, and has been a client of CDG for the past 24 years. HBC was in need of reducing the expense of technical publications, while still maintaining the high level of quality for which they have become recognized. In particular, they were exploring the use of off-shore resources. CDG provided the solution by utilizing resources in the CDG India location. The Chennai, India location has allowed CDG to provide its customers with a broader global extension of its technical authoring capabilities, and to take advantage of lower labor costs while maintaining consistency in processes and quality. CDG was able to meet the HBC challenge of reducing expenses, allowing for a flexible and changing work statement and eliminating risks associated with performing work off-shore.

Terry Clark, Manager, Commercial Maintenance Publications at HBC stated, “CDG continues to be an excellent partner to HBC. Work is always performed to agreed timescales, and is of good quality resulting in few subsequent complaints from the field. Overall, I would highly recommend CDG to anyone interested in getting the job done with the minimum of worry.”
