Aircraft designers and systems integrators deciding to develop their own embedded electronics, or work with outside experts, must make important cost, risk and time-to-market decisions to ensure success. General computer platform vendors can save aircraft design companies and system integrators millions in costs and reduce developmental time.

These open architecture computing and electronic system suppliers provide blank-canvas computer platforms, but perform all the upfront design and processes required to generate all the safety artifacts. These vendors also have established partnerships with leading silicon chip manufacturers to provide advanced technology, allowing them to better plan for emerging trends, ultimately keeping costs down, reliability up and the supply chain going.
