Akkodis and Deutsche Aircraft have signed a cooperation agreement, marking the beginning of a strategic partnership.
The goal is to significantly advance the development and production of innovative regional aircraft in Germany – with a focus on technological excellence and strengthening the local aerospace ecosystem.
Under the agreement, Akkodis will become a first-tier supplier, playing a central role in Deutsche Aircraft’s supply chain.
As a global digital engineering consulting company, Akkodis brings deep expertise in aircraft system development and provides specialized engineering expertise to support Deutsche Aircraft 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 flight, right through to final certification of the new aircraft.
In addition, its Aerospace & Defense division contributes capabilities in digital modelling 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 competency, proactive solutions, and ability to mobilize global resources.
Today, Akkodis enhances this role by leveraging digital development methods that enable faster, more efficient, and lower-emission aircraft development.
Dr. Peter Mehrle, CEO of Akkodis Germany says: “This agreement reinforces our diversification strategy and strengthens our role in the aerospace industry.
“Together with Deutsche Aircraft, we demonstrate Europe’s industrial capability and innovative power: by combining their expertise with our digital engineering know-how, we are driving regional aircraft development made in Germany – and positioning Europe as a leader in sustainable aviation.”
Reiner Oldewurtel, Vice President of Akkodis Germany AS&D GmbH explains: “For us, this cooperation is about translating engineering expertise into real progress.
“Through close collaboration with Deutsche Aircraft, we contribute to faster system integration, more efficient testing, and smoother certification – always guided by quality, passion, and forward-thinking.”
Nico Neumann, CEO of Deutsche Aircraft emphasizes: “The partnership with Akkodis is a significant 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”.
