One of the first lessons that an aerospace professional learns on the job is how to deal with a variety of different clients and contacts. Aerospace engineering companies and firms alike build their clientele base with a number of small contracts, though the majority of their revenues come from major clients. Ranging from airlines to national armed forces, major clients in the aerospace industry are the life blood of any engineer firm. While CAD designers, engineers, and designers alike will always bring their full effort to every project, major clients have specific needs and guidelines that require a different approach for aerospace professionals.
An aerospace engineer or design professional will first recognize the need for a grander scale for major aerospace clients. Unlike smaller clients that require one or two stock designed aircraft, national governments looking to develop a stronger air force require dozens of aircrafts that are met to meet their high demands. Billions of pounds are at stake in dealing with government and major corporate clients, a scale that is harrowing enough without thinking of the design and manufacturing tasks at hand. Aerospace professionals need to consider the scale of their projects when dealing with a major client because of the need for repeat business to financially sustain an aerospace firm. Aerospace professionals also need to confirm themselves with the regulatory and bureaucratic framework for major aerospace clients.
Corporations and governmental bodies have to go through a variety of legal, safety, and political issues in a variety of forums before they can make an order for aerospace services. Indeed, from concept to creation, major aerospace clients may have a project that takes years to complete and requires a variety of alterations to meet changing regulatory issues on a national and international level. Finally, engineers and designers in the aerospace industry need to consider the ultimate importance of their work with a major aerospace client. Governmental bodies that order aircraft and flight equipment through a firm expect products that exceed their guidelines in performance and function. As well, the aforementioned costs and regulations inherent within the aerospace industry make the work done by aerospace professionals all the more important. While all work done in the creation of aircrafts and planes is important, the importance of a major aerospace client to a particular business means that professionals need to use all of their education and experience to keep clients coming back for more.
