Under the agreement, Akkodis will become a first-tier supplier and assume a central role in Deutsche Aircraft’s supply chain. As a global digital engineering consultancy, Akkodis brings deep expertise in the development of aircraft systems and supports Deutsche Aircraft with specialized engineering know-how in achieving key program milestones. The company covers the entire development process – from defining requirements and integrating complex systems to testing on the ground and in the air, and finally the final certification of the new aircraft. In addition, the Aerospace & Defense division brings expertise in digital modeling and simulation, advanced materials and preparation for alternative propulsion systems such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and hydrogen.

Over the years, Akkodis has proven to be a reliable partner through its technological expertise, proactive solutions and ability to mobilize global resources. Today, Akkodis continues to expand this role by leveraging digital development methods that enable faster, more efficient and lower-emission aircraft development.

“This agreement underpins our diversification strategy and strengthens our role in the aerospace industry,” says Dr. Peter Mehrle, CEO of Akkodis Germany. “Together with Deutsche Aircraft, we are demonstrating Europe’s industrial capability and innovative strength: by combining their expertise with our digital engineering know-how, we are driving the development of regional aircraft made in Germany – and positioning Europe as a leader in sustainable aviation.”

“For us, this collaboration is about translating technical expertise into real progress,” explains Reiner Oldewurtel, Vice President of Akkodis Germany AS&D GmbH. “By working closely with Deutsche Aircraft, we contribute to faster system integration, more efficient testing and smoother certification – always guided by quality, passion and foresight.”

“The partnership with Akkodis is an important step in our mission to develop the next generation of regional aircraft. Together, we are committed to digital excellence and emission-reducing technologies to actively shape the future of aviation – from Germany, for Europe and beyond,” emphasizes Nico Neumann, CEO of Deutsche Aircraft.

Akkodis and Deutsche Aircraft see the partnership as a long-term commitment that goes beyond traditional project cooperation – with shared responsibility, strategic foresight and the goal of making regional aircraft more efficient, lower-emission and future-proof, based in Europe.
