Current (Old) Technology:
Sourced from multiple Tier 1s, affecting procurement complexity and driving up acquisition costs
Configurable's (New) Technology:
Uses industry standard components that can be sourced, assembled, and tested with ease -- up to 50% cost advantage over current solutions
Multiple High Precision (Expensive) elements to provide precise feel with minimal backlash.
Consolidates functionality into easily assembled components. -- 0-40% reduction in design and qualification, 60% - 80% reduction in assembly time
Difficult to install, impacts aircraft production flows.
Easy to install, self rigging. -- 50%+ reduction of trouble shooting post-installation
The complexity of Swiss watches, in some cases fully assembled only once on the aircraft, and not assessed for performance till the entire aircraft is complete
As compared to the simplicity and added precision of a quartz watch, fully tested for performance before delivery.
