Case Study: Global Aerospace Manufacturer achieves 75% reduction in material approval times with Cority

Global Aerospace Manufacturer Cuts Material Approval Times By 75%

Global Aerospace Manufacturer, a large, global aerospace OEM, struggled with a manual, siloed material approval process that relied on interoffice mail and lengthy written forms. The process took about three hours per request, duplicated effort across plants, lacked an audit trail, and risked non‑compliance with hazardous communication requirements. After evaluating options, the company selected Cority (cority ONE™ SaaS material approval/chemical management solution) to replace the paper workflow and centralize approvals.

Cority implemented a cloud-based material information management system that enables simultaneous multi‑department reviews, automatic SDS storage, regulatory screening against an extensive content library, and a real‑time audit trail. Deployed and configured in 90 days, the Cority solution cut approval time by 75% (from three hours to under 45 minutes), scaled throughput from about 13 to as many as 53 chemical approvals per week without added overhead, and improved compliance with the Hazardous Communication Standard while reducing risk.
