COLLABORATIONS

KPA always aims to offer its customers high quality, on time and at affordable costs. Also when our customers need it, providing flexible solutions is our top priority. Long term collaborations with our references are based on these foundations.

As a reliable and growing supplier of OEM projects for many years, KPA has provided important parts for many projects up to now.
Here you can find some of the important projects we have found in the supply chain.

AIRBUS

KPA, which manufactures important parts of AIRBUS’s A320 and A400M aircrafts for TAI, has been included in the project named Global Procurement Strategy initiated by AIRBUS in line with its future strategic plans in 2017. The project, which aims to support the potentials of the suppliers it sees as a future strategically and to increase their competencies in line with the AIRBUS targets, started its activities with the support of the international consultancy company Accenture. At the end of the project which continued almost a year, KPA, which fulfilled the requirements, obtained the title of “Detail Part Manufacturer (DPM)”, which is a more prestigious and more competent status in the list of “AIRBUS Approved Suppliers”. With this status confirming the capabilities of KPA in matters such as raw material management, integrated system management, supply chain management, KPA has gained the opportunity to directly participate in AIRBUS programs.

TURKISH AEROSPACE

We have been in intensive cooperation with Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) since the first time we started operating in the aerospace industry and we have always been taking steps together in the growth of the aerspace industry in Turkey. Supporting the component provider role undertaken by TAI with its machining and sub-assemblies in the major programs of aviation giant manufacturers, KPA has been the biggest supplier for many years in terms of both number of parts and  business volume.

As a subcontractor that TAI trusts for domestic aviation projects, KPA has supported the project schedules by undertaking the most important structural parts of these platforms with great devotion which has been in a great leap forward for the last 10 years. Unmanned aerial vehicle ANKA, attack helicopter ATAK, training aircraft HÜRKUŞ and HÜRJET and utility helicopter GÖKBEY are some of the national projects in which KPA took part.

BELL

The structural parts package of the “429” model of the Bell Helicopter, which we started to cooperate with an off-set contract in 2017, includes the need for 18 critical parts for 5 years or more. All process management such as raw material supply, machining, surface treatment, sub-assembly of structural parts made of aluminum and titanium materials ranging from 1 meter to 4 meters is undertaken by KPA. The parts that make up the main skeleton of the 429 model’s body are shipped every month to support the production line. This package also carries KPA to an exemplary position locally as an aerospace exporter.
