About this episode

Welcome to Talking Aerospace Today – a podcast for the Aerospace and Defense industry – the place that brings the promise of tomorrow’s technology to the ears of our listeners today.


We’re in a period of a lot of innovation and in order to survive and even thrive, companies will need to find rapid solutions to get to market faster than their competition. They have to be flexible, productive, and efficient in finding new ways to reach their goals – and the growing complexity doesn’t make their task easier.   


Today, on our first episode on the series of Accelerating Productivity Through Digital Transformation, we’re introducing the idea of what productivity is in this age of digital transformation, the trends that are hampering productivity, and what can A&D companies do right now to usher in a new era of productivity.


Our special guest that will shed light on all these topics we’ve mentioned, is Dale Tutt, the Vice President of Aerospace and Defense at Siemens Digital Industries Software. He’s been involved in product development for 30 years now, and prior to joining Siemens, he was the Vice President of Engineering at The Spaceship Company. Before that, he spent 18 years at Cessna Aircraft Company and he had roles at General Dynamics Space Systems Division and Bombardier Learjet.


Dale is known as the go-to guy for all things aerospace and defense, so tune in to listen to his expertise on the current trends of the digital transformation, as well as what it takes for a company to survive and thrive in this new environment.
