A Tauber team helped Boeing develop a scalable approach to managing component repair costs for its 787 GoldCare service. Interviews with internal teams and suppliers informed recommendations for standardized repair processes, supplier incentives, and cross-functional coordination. The team also supported a pilot and an internal repair cost management team to guide implementation.
