Abstract

The research’s purposes aimed to study the important context of metal part manufacturers in the aerospace industry, including important capability and development topics, leading to produce model and the manual for business development of Metal Parts Manufacturing for the Aerospace Industry. According to the mixed model research, the methodology included in-depth interview for 8 experts from aerospace industrial business, application of Delphi questionnaire for 18 experts from the development of aerospace industrial business and focus group discussion for 13 experts from automotive industrial business. The statistical techniques applied included median, inter-quartiles range. The research’s findings showed that the component of business development model for metal parts manufacturing for the aerospace Industry comprised of business environment, internal organization context, capability needed for aerospace industrial business entrepreneurs regarding knowledge, skill and attribute, leading to the business development model for aerospace industry. The development manual is produced including the steps of planning, evaluating and developing.
