Overview

CS Vertical consultants have worked the maintenance, logistics, or training functions they advise on, not just studied them. Engagements often start before a task order is scoped, helping a customer define which service line a requirement actually needs.

Assignments run from a single proposal review to a multi-month operations study, sized to what the customer needs next.

What we deliver

  • Proposal sections or full draft development for capture and proposal teams
  • Aviation supply-chain and logistics process reviews with written findings
  • Operations management assessments scoped to a stated problem, not a general audit
  • Maintenance planning and process review against current task-order performance
  • Flight and maintenance training program design for a new capability

How we staff it

Consultants work on a project basis, on site for a proposal or planning engagement or remotely for research and document development. [Client to supply: typical engagement staffing model, on-site days versus remote] Consultants are drawn from staff with direct maintenance, logistics, or training background.

Typical task orders

  • Proposal development and capture support for aviation opportunities
  • Aviation supply-chain and logistics process review
  • Operations and maintenance planning for a new or expanding program
  • Flight and maintenance training program design

What you get

Written proposal sections or full drafts, assessment reports with findings and recommendations, or training program design documents, scoped to the engagement.

Standards and qualifications

Consulting work is delivered under the same quality systems that cover every task order.

  • ISO 9001:2015 registered quality management system
  • AS9100/AS9110 aerospace quality registration

Questions primes ask

Do you only support CS Vertical’s own proposals?

No. We work prime and subcontractor proposals as well as our own submissions.

Can you design a training program from scratch?

Yes, flight and maintenance training program design is part of our consulting scope.

Is consulting available as a short, single engagement?

Yes. Send us the scope and timeline and we’ll propose an engagement to match.
