GAMECO becomes first Chinese customer to implement Airbus Managed Inventory (AMI) service

GAMECO (Guangzhou Aircraft Maintenance Engineering) signed a long-term agreement with SATAIR Group concerning the Airbus Managed Inventory (AMI) service. The Airbus subsidiary SatairGroup’s AMI solution optimizes inventory management, ensuring high-usage and non-repairable parts being automatically replenished by GAMECO, whilegranting parts availability and decreasing inventory stock & surplus levelswhile improvingcompetitiveness. With the rapidly emerging China aviation industry in recent years, the traditional purchasing pattern shows its disadvantages gradually. Procurement and human capital cost cannot be controlled effectively any longer assuring quality and safety of aircraft operation at the same time. The scope initially is covering Airbus proprietary parts only, but flexible adapting and adding other material categories including supplier parts and standard hardware items.
