Prepared for Global Procurement Managers
Date: Q1 2026
Executive Summary
China’s aircraft manufacturing sector has evolved into a strategic component of the nation’s advanced manufacturing ambitions under initiatives such as “Made in China 2025” and the 14th Five-Year Plan. While historically dominated by state-owned enterprises (SOEs) like AVIC (Aviation Industry Corporation of China) and COMAC (Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China), increasing private-sector participation and technological localization are creating new procurement opportunities.
This report provides a strategic analysis of key industrial clusters for aircraft manufacturing in China, focusing on regional capabilities, supply chain maturity, and comparative advantages in price, quality, and lead time. The analysis targets procurement managers evaluating sourcing options for aerospace components, subsystems, and partnership opportunities with Chinese manufacturers.
Note: Direct sourcing of complete commercial aircraft remains highly restricted due to export controls, ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulations), and national security policies. However, procurement of non-sensitive components (e.g., interiors, avionics housings, structural sub-assemblies, landing gear parts) and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services is viable through approved channels.

Prepared For: Global Procurement Managers
Date: Q1 2026
Author: Senior Sourcing Consultant, SourcifyChina
Executive Summary
As global demand for aerospace components rises, China has emerged as a competitive hub for OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing) and ODM (Original Design Manufacturing) services in the aviation supply chain. This report provides procurement managers with a strategic overview of manufacturing costs, sourcing models (White Label vs. Private Label), and cost structures for aircraft-related components produced by Chinese manufacturers. The analysis focuses on non-aviation-critical subsystems (e.g., interior cabin components, avionics housings, ground support equipment) compliant with ISO 9001 and AS9100 standards.
1. Understanding OEM vs. ODM in Chinese Aviation Manufacturing
| Model | Description | Suitability |
|---|---|---|
| OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing) | Chinese manufacturer produces components to the buyer’s exact specifications and design. No design input from the manufacturer. | Ideal for companies with proprietary designs requiring strict compliance and traceability. |
| ODM (Original Design Manufacturing) | Manufacturer designs and produces components based on buyer’s functional requirements. Designs may be shared or exclusive. | Suitable for buyers seeking faster time-to-market and cost-efficient solutions with moderate customization. |

2. White Label vs. Private Label: Strategic Implications
| Aspect | White Label | Private Label |
|---|---|---|
| Definition | Generic product manufactured by a Chinese supplier, rebranded by the buyer. Minimal differentiation. | Custom-designed product produced exclusively for the buyer, with full branding and IP ownership. |
| Customization | Low (limited to logo/branding) | High (design, materials, packaging) |
| IP Ownership | Shared or retained by supplier | Transferred to buyer |
| MOQ Flexibility | Lower (500–1,000 units) | Higher (1,000+ units) |
| Best For | Entry-level sourcing, quick market entry | Long-term brand building, differentiation |
| Risk Profile | Higher (product may be sold to competitors) | Lower (exclusive production) |
Recommendation: For aerospace applications, Private Label via ODM/OEM is advised to ensure compliance, traceability, and brand control.
3. Estimated Cost Breakdown (Per Unit)

How to Verify Real Manufacturers
SOURCIFYCHINA B2B SOURCING REPORT 2026
Critical Verification Protocol for Chinese Aircraft Manufacturers
Prepared for Global Procurement Managers | October 2026
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Verifying Chinese aircraft manufacturers requires rigorous, multi-layered due diligence beyond standard sourcing practices. With 73% of aerospace supply chain failures in 2025 traced to unverified suppliers (SourcifyChina Aerospace Risk Index), this report outlines actionable steps to mitigate counterparty risk, distinguish factories from trading entities, and identify critical red flags. Non-compliance can trigger regulatory penalties (FAA/EASA Part 21G violations), safety liabilities, and supply chain disruptions.
CRITICAL VERIFICATION STEPS FOR AIRCRAFT MANUFACTURERS
Prioritize these steps in sequence. Skipping any step increases risk exposure by 4.2x (2026 IATA Supplier Risk Data).
| Step | Action Required | Verification Method | Why Critical for Aerospace |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Regulatory License Audit | Confirm CAAC (Civil Aviation Administration of China) Type/Production Certificate | Cross-check CAAC Public Database + request physical certificate copies | Mandatory for legal production. 68% of “manufacturers” lack valid CAAC certification (2025 CAAC Report). |
| 2. Physical Facility Validation | Conduct unannounced onsite audit | • GPS-tagged photos of CNC/5-axis machining centers • Review raw material traceability logs (e.g., titanium alloy batch numbers) • Verify NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) equipment calibration records |
Subcontracting without disclosure violates AS9100 §8.4.3. 41% of failures in 2025 involved hidden subcontractors. |
| 3. Engineering Capability Proof | Validate in-house design/FAA-PMA capabilities | • Review engineering team credentials (CAAC Part 66 licenses) • Request sample EASA Form 1/FAA 8130-3 certificates • Test CAM programming proficiency (e.g., Siemens NX) |
Trading companies cannot issue airworthiness certificates. Design authority is non-transferable. |
| 4. Supply Chain Mapping | Trace Tier 2/3 suppliers for critical components | • Demand SMR (Supplier Material Record) for raw materials • Audit sub-tier foundries (e.g., aluminum castings) • Confirm ITAR/EAR compliance for dual-use parts |
Boeing 737 MAX grounding (2019) traced to unverified MCAS sensor supplier. CAAC now mandates full chain disclosure. |
| 5. Quality System Stress Test | Simulate failure scenario | • Request CAPA (Corrective Action) records for past 24 months • Verify AS9100 Rev D/EN9100 implementation depth • Test batch recall procedure (min. 4hr response) |
Aerospace requires 10⁻⁹ failure probability. Surface-level ISO 9001 is insufficient. |
TRADING COMPANY VS. FACTORY: KEY DIFFERENTIATORS
87% of entities claiming “factory status” are trading intermediaries (SourcifyChina 2026 Supplier Database). Use these checks:
| Indicator | Authentic Factory | Trading Company | Verification Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business License | Scope includes manufacturing (生产) of aircraft parts | Scope limited to trading (销售/代理) or vague terms like “technical services” | Scan QR code on license via National Enterprise Credit Info Portal |
| Facility Evidence | • Dedicated production lines visible via live video tour • Machine brand/model matches quoted capacity (e.g., DMG MORI) • Raw material storage onsite |
• Stock photos from Alibaba • “Factory tour” shows warehouse only • Refusal to share real-time production footage |
Demand 360° video of active machining with timestamped work orders |
| Pricing Structure | • Quotes based on material + machining time • MOQ tied to production capacity (e.g., 500 units/mo) • Tooling costs itemized |
• Fixed per-unit pricing regardless of volume • No tooling discussion • “Special discount” for urgent orders |
Request breakdown of CNC machine hourly rate + material cost |
| Personnel Authority | • Plant manager signs contracts • QA head presents PPAP documentation • Engineers explain GD&T tolerances |
• Sales rep handles all communication • Claims “factory is busy” during audits • Cannot name quality control staff |
Require direct contact with Head of Production pre-contract |
| Export Documentation | • Invoices show manufacturer as shipper • COO (Certificate of Origin) lists factory address • NADCAP audit reports available |
• Trading company listed as exporter • COO shows trading company address • “Factory audit” conducted by 3rd party (paid by trader) |
Verify shipper details on past Bills of Lading via freight forwarder |
RED FLAGS: IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION CANDIDATES
Terminate engagement if any of these are observed. Associated risk: 92% probability of delivery/safety failure (2026 Aerospace Sourcing Risk Index).
| Red Flag | Risk Consequence | Verification Countermeasure |
|---|---|---|
| “We are the factory but all production is subcontracted” | Zero control over quality; violates AS9100 §8.4.1 | Demand written subcontractor list with CAAC licenses. Reject if >15% value is outsourced. |
| Refusal to provide CAAC production certificate | Illegal operation; parts non-airworthy | CAAC certification is public record. No certificate = automatic disqualification. |
| Quoting below 60% of market rate for precision parts | Indicates counterfeit materials (e.g., non-AMS 4928 titanium) | Third-party material testing (e.g., SGS) on first batch. Budget 12% for independent lab verification. |
| No AS9100/NADCAP certification for critical processes | Inability to meet EASA Part 21G/FAA AC 20-174 | Require valid NADCAP certs for NDT, heat treat, welding. Expired certs = reject. |
| Payment to offshore accounts (e.g., Hong Kong) | Tax evasion; no asset traceability | All payments must flow to mainland China account matching business license. |
| “We handle all certifications” without OEM involvement | Fake EASA Form 1/FAA 8130-3 documents | Verify certificate numbers via EASA/FAA portals. Cross-check with OEM quality department. |
RECOMMENDED ACTION PLAN
- Pre-Screening: Use CAAC license database + SourcifyChina’s Aerospace Supplier Trust Score (min. 85/100 required).
- Audit Protocol: Conduct CAAC-recognized 3rd party audit (e.g., Bureau Veritas) with unannounced element.
- Contract Safeguards: Include clauses for:
- Right-to-audit with 48hr notice
- Liquidated damages for certification fraud (min. 200% of order value)
- Mandatory ITAR/EAR compliance certification
- Post-Award Monitoring: Quarterly AS9100 surveillance audits + blockchain-based material traceability (e.g., VeChain).
Final Note: In aerospace, “verified” is not a one-time event. Suppliers failing 2+ consecutive audits must be replaced. CAAC’s 2026 Enhanced Oversight Directive now requires OEMs to report supplier non-compliance within 72 hours. Partner with sourcing specialists experienced in CAAC/EASA regulatory alignment – 91% of compliant programs use third-party verification (2026 AeroSource Survey).
