HIGH POINT, N.C., Nov. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- New Breed Logistics, Inc., headquartered in High Point, North Carolina, has announced that they have been selected by The Boeing Company to provide logistics and supply chain management of commercial aircraft fasteners in support of the Boeing Aggregated Standards Network (BASN) program. This agreement represents continued growth of the relationship between New Breed and The Boeing Company.

The program includes planning, ordering, storage, and distribution of fasteners for up to 300 Boeing suppliers and 20 Boeing fastener manufacturers. Services New Breed will provide include forecast aggregation for fasteners, capacity planning, supply base management, inbound transportation management, product storage, order processing, and coordination of outbound transportation.

New Breed was selected in 2006 as the lead logistics provider for the 787 Dreamliner final assembly and delivery program at Boeing's manufacturing campus in Everett, Washington. In 2010, Boeing established a second 787 final assembly operation in North Charleston, South Carolina, and again selected New Breed to operate the support facility.

The Company operates the Boeing Commercial Airplanes spare parts program for eastern North America, South, and Central Americas; the F/A-18 Integrated Readiness Support Teaming, or FIRST, program; spares programs for the H-46 rotorcraft, Japanese and Italian KC-767 tankers, F-15s, the C-17 and the F-22.
