Texas Attorney General Probes Boeing Supplier's Diversity Practices
TL;DR
The Texas attorney general has launched an investigation into Spirit AeroSystems, a key Boeing supplier, over apparent manufacturing defects in parts that have led to concerning incidents. The investigation also includes a request for documents related to diversity efforts and workforce makeup. This comes after a Spirit-made door-plug panel blew off an Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 Max in January, prompting scrutiny from federal regulators. The attorney general's request for information also delves into Spirit's efforts to create a diverse workforce and whether those commitments are compromising the company's manufacturing processes.
