Hi and happy new year to everbody!
what i think bomb should do in 2021
1.work hard to reduce the production cost on all levels.
-i work for a suplier and i know for a fact that the prices that bomb is paying for parts are 10 to 25 procent higher than for boeing for example.
2. to fix the very bad micro management all around the company.
3. very fast and agresive to improve the backlog.
4. to buy some small to medium size supliers and procesors.
-even now the industry is slow the need of good supliers is stil there.
5.to cut the work force so they can have revenue for 2021 more than 420000 cad/employe
6.to have a transperancy in info.
7.to slowly start to put on the market the global 8500. as a bussines jet and as a small comercial 50 seats aircraft.
-the industry post pandemic will req.a huge flexiblity in aircrafts sizes ,clases etc.
8. to reduce depth by end of 2021 by 50% and have a profit of at least 1 bil.
Will not be easy but is very posible .
Please bomb .people start looking down to micro..Overthere is half of the majors problems that bomb has.You need to consolidate to every detail/part/proces as much is posible.
Good luck!

So long 2020, don't let the door hit ya...Hey 2021, nice to meet ya! Interesting comments bomb2020. They do highlight the serious challenges BBD faces. For example, it is difficult to put pressure on suppliers when the backlog is shrinking at a rate of $3B/year. BBD started the year with a backlog of $14.4B and I suspect will end the year with a backlog of about $11.5B. Still healthy, but

Have a great 2021 all. Better luck at the tables esp. with your BBD chips. Lots of good ideas from Bomb2020.  I feel that when Martel said they had too much capacity he was alluding to reducing their "fixed" costs - they seem to breakeven EBIT wise at grosso modo $900M per quarter.  @ $5.5B annual sales, a 5% improvement or $275M would represent 7.6% of break-even (internal

This might be good for the Mirabel operation. Effective Jan. 12, the US will slap a 15% tax on fuselage, wing and tail components shipped from France and Germany to Mobile for final assembly on A320s and A321s.
