Meeting the Innovation Imperative for Aircraft MRO Industry

Nowadays, Innovation is imperative in aircraft MRO industry due to the complexity of the new generation aircrafts and the ever increasing global competition. Innovation implies survival of the fittest. More and more companies step into commercial aviation market, while only those companies equipped with the most advanced facilities and well-adapted could stand out from the competition.

Key Drivers to Execute Innovation

The survival of software suppliers, airline operators and many other companies depends on innovation, which encompassed a series of strategic reasons. The initial reason for innovation is fleets of brand new generation aircrafts. Plenty of airline operators are ready to receive B787 and A350. There is also a part of companies made orders on the two new models. The two new models are equipped with the new systems, and its electronization is extremely high. In fact, the two new models could be regarded as computers generating big data while operating the transportation of passengers and cargos. The big data from the new model aircrafts completely exceed the data from traditional aircrafts. In addition, the new models have been equipped with prognostics systems that could seek out the coming fault and integrate the relevant information with adaptive maintenance technology. The new generation aircrafts is the maximal drive force of civil aviation innovation. One of the characters of aviation industry is that there are very few dramatic innovations at the most of the time, but an important turning point could lead to significant changes. Today, the turning point we could see comes from B787 and A350. The huge application of composite materials on aircraft body has implied its technical innovation. Besides, the strong capability of generating big data is the initial driver of innovation especially for the airline operators adopting new model aircrafts and the software suppliers who are struggling to fulfill the demands of the airline operators.
