   Is Boeing working its way down the learning curve?

   • With the 787, introducing new technologies and new manufacturing techniques, that curve was steeper than for typical new aircraft. The initial impact of significant traveled work and delays likely resulted in the first 787 deliveries being sold at big losses. But Boeing appears to be working its way down the learning curve on 787 production.

   What is a learning curve?

   • Learning Curves have traditionally been used for cost estimating and training purposes. However, they have a much wider applications, including Manufacturing and Marketing strategy. They underly the concept of Continuous Improvement. Like compound interest, they generate large benefits from seemingly small, incremental change.

   Does learning curve affect manufacturing performance?

   • It works for: Most examples in the literature illustrate learning curve effects on direct labor. However, many other dimensions of manufacturing performance follow the same pattern. Examples are quality, delivery and (over the long term) total cost. Table 1 shows representative learning rates compiled from various sources in the literature.

   Why do companies use experience curves?

   • Companies can use Experience Curves to develop marketing and manufacturing strategy. Experience Curves are usually established over longer time periods than Learning Curves. In addition, market price is often used as a substitute for actual cost since costs for such a wide-ranging study are often unavailable.

   Learning curves are used to model the regular and predictable reduction of per unit cost associated with manufacturing. In space systems, learning curves have been used to estimate cost of multiple unit spacecraft acquisitions. Usually in the 2 – 5 range.

   Sep 28, 2017 · Learning curves are estimated based on the flyaway cost for the latest three fighter aircraft models: The A/F-18E/F Super Hornet, the F-22A Raptor, and the F-35A Lightning II. We find that learning rates for the F-35A are significantly lower (an estimated learning rate of around 9%) than for the other two models (around 14%).

   Sep 26, 2017 · Everyone understands that aerospace programs are complex and tough to industrialize. This is especially the case with new technologies – from new software to new materials. Can one discern learning curves that demonstrate how OEMs (with ever longer supply chains) are improving their processes?
