Boeing’s quality problems are so significant, mainly because Boeing’s status is too important. First, Boeing has long been the world's only manufacturer of two large commercial aircraft with . That is the only remaining fruit after decades of fierce market competition. In the process, you say wave No one believes in quality, products, and technology.
In the second aspect, Boeing is the basis for the formation of public beliefs about aircraft safety. Such an industry leader is the absolute basis and guarantee of the world's flight technology, safe transportation transportation. It is precisely because for decades, Boeing has created a world in the world through continuous technical research and development and stable production quality. The safest means of transportation is the facts and beliefs of the aircraft. People have known for generations that these big planes are safe and will not be easy to fall. This is the foundation of the entire industry and technology, the most basic to support the employment of millions of people in the entire industry, hundreds of billions of capacity and market The basis. Without a foundation, there is no developed aviation market today, and there is no convenient transportation network today.
When the world believes in the quality of Boeing, he has broken this myth and made people around the world stunned and let the world /span>People are beginning to doubt the safety of the aircraft, and even doubt the authenticity of the world, doubting whether the economic achievements created by mankind since the industrial revolution are true, Reliable, whether it is the future direction, there is doubt.
So how does a tall Boeing come to this step? According to many sources and analysts, Boeing’s problem is out. this aspect of control.
Cost control is something that any organization or business must do, but if a company has a cost control priority, Span>The corporate culture of the target may have a significant impact on product quality. Because a lot of things start to accumulate from a small place, when accumulating a quantity of , the result of the addition will be of order of magnitude. Variety. Just like Boeing, a huge company that involves millions of parts, a few 100,000 suppliers and partners, There are many departments within the company. Once each department or supplier puts cost control in the first one, everyone relaxes the quality a little bit, or even just Relax one ten thousandth. As long as enough time has accumulated, the entire system will issue biomass changes. A company that has a strong demand for security will also cause fatal problems because of this inadvertent change.
Boeing, in order to save costs, when designing the new 737MAX aircraft, it was just a replacement of the engine, and then the other hardware is the old model Related. Of course, there will be many mismatches, including balance, stability, structural security, and so on. But in order to save costs and reduce the cost of design and reproduction, Boeing actually compensated and corrected hardware and design issues through software. It is also the problem of these software that led to the subsequent to the continuous crash.
Originally, Boeing was an engineer's corporate culture, but in order to save costs, a large number of experienced and long-time high-paying workers were laid off. /span>Cheng Shi, changed some cheaper newcomers. In addition to lower wage costs, they can better control their behavior and ideas. The original old projectThe teacher is the first in quality and safety first. This concept is deeply rooted and difficult to change. . If it is an old engineer, the kind of software to correct the hard problems can not be passed. Only with new people can we better control and change the practices and ideas of engineers.
In terms of training, Boeing is also a large-scale budget cut, reducing costs. For the original new aircraft, Boeing spent tens of millions of dollars to build a simulated flight.The warehouse, and then through these devices, a comprehensive training machine The teacher can only fly the plane after passing the examination. Later, this training was said to be on the tabletCompleted, even through training. Later, in several incidents of 737, many captains did not understand why the aircraft's control computer was strong.Hard to let the plane go Fly down, check the flight manual before the crash, hope to find a solution.
A change in corporate culture is a complete and radical change in a business. Boeing has transformed from a technology flow, an engineer culture enterprise to a a cost-controlled kidnapping company, and the process is very long. There are also many external factors that have contributed to it.
After paying such a big price, Boeing can still go on, whether it will be replaced by China’s aircraft manufacturing industry, it is very Possible things. The crisis often occurs from within, and powerful people are defeated by themselves. The enemy's fortress is broken from the inside.
