The Challenge

Where it started.

$162M spend across heat exchangers, precision machining, castings, and structural fabrications. Limited supplier alternatives and incumbents winning resourcing >70% of the time on execution risk.

SPEND DEPLOYED $162M total spend
CSC Approach

What we did.

Cost-modeled heat exchanger and machining processes. Tariff-optimized supplier strategy across USA, USMCA, and LCC. Ran APQP-aligned supplier transitions with full tooling, validation, and ramp support to de-risk incumbents.
