Component Control said that A&R Aviation Services, an FAA and EASA 145 Repair Station, utilized Quantum Control MRO and Logistics software to significantly streamline its shop processes and improve efficiency. Based in Tumwater, Washington, A&R Aviation Services specializes in maintaining, repairing and overhauling aircraft structures and components for Boeing, Airbus and Douglas transport aircraft. The service center’s 36 employees operate out of a 60,000-ft² facility. When it opened in 2008, A&R Aviation Services started with just three users on the Quantum system. Today, it has 30 concurrent users, according to Ronnie Hix, CEO of A&R Aviation Services. “Utilizing the system to our capability has streamlined our processes and brought better efficiency to A&R,” he said.
Aircraft Propeller Service (APS), a global leader in aircraft propeller system maintenance services, is leveraging Quantum Control MRO and Logistics software to support its growth and expansion worldwide. In early 2015, after more than 60 years in business, Aircraft Propeller Service opened its new 46,000-ft² headquarters and repair facility in Lake Zurich, Illinois near Chicago-O’Hare International Airport. More recently, APS also opened a new repair center in Atibaia, Brazil, and plans to open another repair shop in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, later this spring. “We simply could not scale our business without Quantum,” said Dennis A. Santare, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Having a standardized tool that is supportive of our processes is key. To quickly scale, we needed something that multiple sites could use – the same way. Standardization enables scale, from our point of view. Additionally, Quantum is flexible and enables multi-currency, multi-tax, multi-price operations, among other things, all of which are crucial when deploying infrastructure in multiple countries.”
