End-to-end development for all aerospace and defence programmes
We assume responsibility for your success: with us, complex development projects for critical applications in aviation, space and defence are in good hands. The expertise of our engineers and computer scientists and our many years of experience have made us a preferred supplier in the European aerospace and defence sector.
Digital transformation is reshuffling the deck in our industrial environment: from traditional product and systems development to the transformation of obsolete equipment, cybersecurity, model-based systems engineering, extended reality or data analytics, our interdisciplinary team of experts take our customers’ engineering solutions to the next level.
The development engineers, project managers and process and systems engineers of the FERCHAU Aviation Group’s French subsidiaries are ready to meet all project requirements along the value chain from traditional design to an agile approach, from simple design to the architecture of complex systems, always in a sustainable, reliable, and efficient manner.
As one of Europe’s leading providers of engineering and IT services, we have offices at all major aerospace sites. We have also received the main certifications granted in this sector. In France, we ensure proximity to our customers with subsidiaries in Toulouse and Marignane. The cornerstones of our approach, from the initial idea to realisation, are strict quality standards and absolute process reliability in the development of critical systems and applications.

Success stories made by FERCHAU
The tide is turning in aerospace and defence
Digital transformation is shaping the future of aviation, aerospace, and defence. No company can ignore the opportunities offered by technological change. The FERCHAU Aviation Group has combined its IT skills into a strategic approach and handles its customers’ projects in its business units:
- Embedded & Testing includes, in addition to automation, traditional hardware and software development on integrated platforms, as well as the provision of digitised test systems.
- Legacy Transformation addresses hardware and software obsolescence through long product life cycles and the redesign of existing systems.
- Cyber Security focuses on securing critical IT infrastructure for military and many other industrial systems.
- Extended Reality includes technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR) and Augmented Reality (AR), also for modern training programmes on mission-critical applications.
- Data Analytics, the technology behind Big Data, focuses on data as the basis for digitisation and as a support for decision-making and forecasting.
- Modelling & Simulation meets interesting customer demands for complex systems, shorter development times, lower costs- and higher quality standards.
