ST Engineering has reported that its Commercial Aerospace business has secured a component Maintenance-By-the-Hour (MBH™) contract from Virgin Australia Airlines.
Under the five-year contract, ST Engineering will provide full integrated component support to Virgin Australia’s growing fleet of Boeing B737NG aircraft starting this month. The suite of comprehensive component MRO services includes repair management, pool access and provision of consignment stock in Australia. This adds to the airframe heavy maintenance services that ST Engineering is currently providing to the airline at its Singapore facility.
Virgin Australia Chief Operations Officer, Stuart Aggs, said, “Virgin Australia Airlines is pleased to have selected ST Engineering as our strategic partner for component MRO services through a comprehensive tender process. We look forward to maximising our strategic partnership as domestic and international travel ramps up and our fleet, team and passengers return to the skies.”
