KLM Business Case

A-check turn around time reduced to fly 3 hours more

In the highly competitive aviation industry, optimizing maintenance operations is crucial for airlines to maintain operational efficiency and reduce costs. Our software suite, designed to streamline aircraft cabin maintenance, has proven to be a game-changer.

A Real-World Success Story

One of our clients, KLM took the opportunity of Cabin APP implementation to challenge themselves: reduce maintenance checks turn around time of their B737 fleet, particularly during the peak summer season. The cabin maintenance process was often a bottleneck and impacting overall operational efficiency.

By implementing our software solution, the airline achieved significant improvements:

• Reduced Maintenance Time:The intuitive mobile application empowered mechanics to quickly identify and address maintenance issues, significantly reducing inspection time.
• Streamlined Logistics The software's ability to generate real-time maintenance reports enabled efficient material ordering and logistics planning.
• Improved Workforce Efficiency: Before inspection ends, first batches of part were available so that subcontractor could start replacements.

Our software suite empowers airlines to optimize maintenance operations and maximize aircraft availability. By streamlining inspection processes and reducing downtime, our solution directly impacts an airline's bottom line.

Quantifying the Impact

Let's consider a scenario where a B737-NG generates €18,000 per flight hour. By reducing maintenance time by 3 hours every 2 months, we can calculate the potential annual revenue increase for a fleet of 42 aircraft.

Annual Additional Flight Hours:

3 hours/2 months/aircraft * 12 months/year * 42 aircraft = 756 additional hours/year

Annual Revenue Increase:

756 additional hours/year * €18,000/hour = €13,608,000

This significant revenue increase demonstrates the substantial return on investment that our software can provide. By optimizing maintenance operations and maximizing aircraft availability, airlines can unlock significant financial benefits.
