On the [[Airbus A380]], less than 100 major suppliers outsource 60% of its value, even 80% on the [[A350XWBAirbus A350|A350]].<!--<ref name=AvWeek18may2017/>-->

[[Boeing]] embraced an aggressive Tier 1 model for the [[B787Boeing 787|787]] but with its difficulties began to question why it was earning lower margins than its suppliers while it seemed to take all the risk, ensuing its 2011 ''Partnering for Success'' initiative, as [[Airbus]] initiated its own ''Scope+'' initiative for the [[Airbus A320|A320]].<!--<ref name=AvWeek18may2017/>-->

Tier 1 consolidation also affects engine manufacturers : [[GE AviationAerospace]] acquired [[Avio]] in 2013 and [[Rolls-Royce plcHoldings|Rolls-Royce]] is takingtook control of [[IndustriaITP de Turbo PropulsoresAero]].<ref name=AvWeek18may2017>{{cite news |url= http://aviationweek.com/commercial-aviation/beware-oem-supplier-relations-are-changing |title= Beware, OEM-supplier Relations Are Changing |date= May 18, 2017 |author= Kevin Michaels |work= [[Aviation Week & Space Technology]]}}</ref>
