Of course, our warehouse management essentially also consists of receiving goods, storing goods and shipping goods, but we take each individual step further than logistics companies that come from outside the aviation industry. And that's precisely why our warehouse management for aviation companies exceeds the usual standards. For example, our warehouse management activities are always carried out directly where aircraft take off and land – at airports, directly next to your maintenance and overhaul hangars. There, we can integrate these management activities directly in your company. These are only two of the decisive steps that make all the difference – because they exceed the usual limits.
For customers with a focus on Line Maintenance...
... these logistical steps must be larger in scope in order to be faster. After all, for the parties involved, line maintenance means using the time window between an aircraft's landing and take-off as effectively as possible – because you might know precisely when the event will happen, but you do not know which materials you're going to need.
- We provide a coordinated transport concept to ensure the shortest possible delivery time if the materials are needed at locations that are not directly next to one of our warehouses. This increases the speed of reaction and supply.
- Together we will take a close look at all production processes to determine exactly where time is likely to be wasted, and how this can be prevented.
For customers with a focus on Base Maintenance...
... these logistical steps must continually increase in speed, since the speed in the world of base maintenance increases steadily up until the agreed time of delivery, for example because the number of AOG requests goes up toward the end of the ground maintenance period.
- Our logistics are tailored to our customers' requirements. We can move ad hoc from one location to another if the event suddenly occurs somewhere else than where it was planned.
- We put together kits that contain precisely the materials required for the next work step of the D-check.
- We organize a material return process, so that you can prepare for the next event.
For customers with a focus on Component and Engine repairs...
... these logistical steps need to merge seamlessly, since repair cycles require optimal turnaround times. That's why you need logistics that move seamlessly to keep pace with the speed of your repair cycle.
- We provide logistics that accurately control each part number through state-of-the-art IT systems. This enables us to guarantee a closed-loop process with short turnaround times for every device or component that needs repairing, and react immediately in the case of deviations.
- For engine repairs, we provide logistics that ensure a consistently fast flow of materials in your repair cycle. After all, you would be hard-pressed to find another type of repair where time costs so much money.
