Aerospace maintenance planning demands precision, reliable data, and agile processes. AeroCORE proposes in-house stock and an analytical approach that uses historical data and demand trends to forecast spares. This model translates into operational efficiency, cost reduction, and greater safety for fleets and workshops in the U.S.
Data-driven forecasting is key. AeroCORE feeds inventories with demand analysis by aircraft, type, and route, identifying critical and high-turn parts to optimize stock by location. Real-time visibility of inventory, integrated with MRO systems, facilitates scheduled stops and substitutions without surprises.
In-house stock reduces dependence on third parties and minimizes delay risks. When a critical part is needed for scheduled maintenance, it can be met from internal inventory, allowing maintenance to stay on schedule and avoid interruptions. This is especially valuable for regional fleets and narrow maintenance windows.
Another advantage is price consistency amid market volatility. With strategic stock, AeroCORE negotiates supply agreements and standardizes prices for certain components, mitigating inflation impacts and sudden cost changes. This helps airlines and workshops plan budgets with greater predictability.
The selection and quality-control process ensures each part meets airworthiness standards and comes with complete documentation. Each batch has certificates and traceability for audits and regulatory compliance. Case studies show workshops with scheduled stops optimizing deliveries; operators requiring rapid replenishment to maintain itineraries and SLAs; and maintenance programs prioritizing safety and fleet integrity.
By 2025, digitization of purchasing and parts management platforms integrates documentation, warranties, and traceability, along with technical advisory to review compatibility and optimize substitutions. This proactive approach prevents incompatibilities and promotes more efficient maintenance interventions. Conclusion: stock-based planning with data-driven demand turns operational uncertainty into flight continuity. AeroCORE demonstrates that strategic stock, demand analytics, and quality control transform spare-parts management, reducing downtime and increasing safety.
Recommended best practices: forecasting models that combine historical demand and trends, maintaining inventories at strategic locations, integrating maintenance and inventory, quality and traceability criteria for each lot, and fostering a proactive service culture with flexible supply plans.
