Aerospace Manufacturing – Missouri (MO)

Like many industries over the past few years, aerospace product and parts manufacturing companies in Missouri have faced countless challenges and embraced many available opportunities.

While manufacturing leaders are focused on streamlining the manufacturing process, issues with part shortages, production slowdowns, labor shortages, cybersecurity and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) persist. Perhaps the biggest concern for manufacturers is inflation. Not only is it driving up the cost of supplies, but it’s decreasing buying power and borrowing options ultimately creating a cashflow issue for aerospace product and parts manufacturers. Throw in external factors like decreased purchasing power at the Department of Defense and from commercial airlines, and your growth trajectory may look different in this environment.

When facing times of uncertainty, manufacturers must manage the variables they can control. Your relationship with your accounting firm is one of those factors.  Working with a certified public accounting (CPA) firm with the relevant technical expertise and experience in your industry will allow you to navigate tax liabilities and present a strong financial picture for audit requirements and management decisions.
