SPACE AWARDS: MCSA teams rewarded!


The MCSA Group was pleased and honoured to receive a "SPACE AWARD" from Maurice Perrault, President of SPACE Association, on 24 April at the Airbus St Eloi plant in Toulouse, in recognition of its Industrial Excellence Programme.


Engaged in this programme since 2009, the MCSA Group has set itself the goal of progressively implementing the MCSA bricks of on-going improvement to guarantee permanent improvement in our Quality, Service and Cost performance throughout our sites. The programme was developed around "good practices" that already exist in our plants as well as those of certain customers.

The main characteristics of the MCSA Industrial Excellence Programme for which the trophy was awarded include:

• The MCSA teams' commitment to the project at all levels of the organisation, assuring efficiency and durability of progress accomplished

• The realistic implementation on all sites in France and Tunisia, using the successes of each plant to progressively build upon


The SPACE Association's mission is to carry out robust industrial improvement projects with suppliers to the aerospace industry in order to mutually share resources. SPACE regroups leading contractors and sub-contractors, such as: EADS, ATR, Eurocopter, Airbus, SAFRAN, Thales, Zodiac Aerospace, Dassault, Liebherr Aerospace, Eaton, Hamilton, Ratier Figeac, MOOG, Daher, Goodrich, Diehl Aerospace and Latécoère.


From the beginning of this project, SPACE has accompanied us in a variety of ways: organising visits to sites of reference (Liebherr Aerospace Toulouse, Ratier Figeac) for MCSA teams, providing training, actively participating in our Steering Committee and ensuring that the best experts in the sector were available to assist us in crucial implementation phases.


I would like to warmly thank the SPACE Association for this trophy that rewards the quality and efficiency of work accomplished by MCSA employees. MCSA Management is committed to transforming this recognition into reinforced motivation for all to continue our path towards Excellence and customer satisfaction.

This certification rewards the efforts of the MCSA CELERC and MCSA SET teams who successfully adapted to the new requirement, notably in regards to

- project management

- risk management

- configuration management

- mastering business transfers

- and management of special processes.

EN 9100 v.2009 certification is one of the MCSA Group's objectives in its drive to continually improve performance and master its processes.
