Boeing selected New Breed Logistics Inc. to provide logistics and supply chain management of commercial aircraft fasteners in support of the Boeing Aggregated Standards Network (BASN) program.
The program includes planning, ordering, storage, and distribution of fasteners for up to 300 Boeing suppliers and 20 Boeing fastener manufacturers.
Headquartered in High Point, NC, New Breed will provide such services as forecast aggregation for fasteners, capacity planning, supply base management, inbound transportation management, product storage, order processing, and coordination of outbound transportation.
“This expansion of our relationship with Boeing demonstrates that our efforts have truly made a difference for them and provides further incentive for us to keep raising the bar, ” stated New Breed CEO Louis DeJoy.
New Breed was selected in 2006 as the lead logistics provider for the 787 Dreamliner final assembly and delivery program at Boeing’s manufacturing campus in Everett, WA.
In 2010, Boeing established a second 787 final assembly operation in North Charleston, SC, and again selected New Breed to operate the support facility.
New Breed supports several other Boeing commercial and defense aviation programs, including the Boeing Commercial Airplanes spare parts program for eastern North America, South, and Central Americas; the F/A-18 Integrated Readiness Support Teaming, or FIRST, program; spares programs for the H-46 rotorcraft, Japanese and Italian KC-767 tankers, F-15s, the C-17 and the F-22.
The company also provides parts kitting and line-side delivery services for new-build military rotorcraft programs at Boeing’s Ridley Park, PA manufacturing site that include the Chinook and V-22 Osprey.
New Breed received the Boeing Performance Excellence Award (BPEA) in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010.
