AJW Group has been selected by easyJet as its supply chain management provider, following a successful partnership since 2015.
AJW will continue to be responsible for the 24/7 planning and delivery of the airline's demand and supply requirements from inventory management across easyJet's extensive network; full component repair and overhaul services as well as the provision, storage and distribution of all rotable, consumable and expendable material.
A key operational enhancement will be the introduction of an EU-hub in Malpensa, Italy, which will serve to further enhance operational efficiency across Europe. The EU-hub will supplement the current UK-hub to maximise up-time, availability and dispatch reliability.
The new seven-year contract introduces innovative solutions that will provide step-change improvements for the airline. AJW is developing and investing in process re-engineering and automation tools to drive superior performance, cost reduction and operational excellence across the board. AJW Technique, the Group's Maintenance Repair and Overhaul facility, will continue to play a significant role in the new contract as it repairs and overhauls easyJet components.
