INTRODUCING THE INCOMPARABLE 787-10 on the cover 20 Mobile computing devices such as iPads are helping employees be more productive at Boeing production sites while also improving workplace safety. In Mesa, Ariz., home of the Apache helicopter, and at Boeing’s C-17 factory in Long Beach, Calif., the use of these mobile tablets has resulted in myriad shop-floor improvements. Employees say they can accomplish more in less time with less effort. Meanwhile, Boeing’s Information Technology group is working with other programs across the enterprise to see whether mobility is a good fit.
