LTTS wins new multiyear deal from Airbus for undisclosed sum

LTTS, the engineering services arm of infrastructure major L&T, on Thursday said it has won a multi-year contract from leading aircraft manufacturer Airbus.

It, however, did not disclose the overall deal amount for the contract.

The company said it has been recognised as a global preferred engineering supplier by Airbus under its EMES3 (engineering, manufacturing engineering and services strategic suppliers) programme, according to an official statement.

The Airbus Group assessed LTTS' capabilities across the engineering, manufacturing engineering and customer services domain for over a year, it said, adding that the engagement covers all Airbus divisions, subsidiaries and affiliates.

LTTS has also scaled up operations across Airbus' key geographic locations, including Toulouse (France), which is poised to become the main R&D centre of excellence (CoE), serving LTTS' wide aerospace customer portfolio, along with LTTS' strong talent pool of over 17,000 engineers operating out of India and leveraging conventional and digital expertise, the statement said.

It has already been a strategic supplier for Airbus global and its India subsidiary for more than a decade, providing engineering services across verticals like engineering, avionics and digital.

''Airbus Group is our esteemed customer with whom we have had a decade-long relationship which is further strengthened by our selection as an EMES3 supplier.

''We are delighted to be selected and look forward to #EngineeringTheChange for Airbus and its ecosystem,'' the company's Chief Executive and Managing Director Amit Chadha said.
