In order to drive the digital transformation of aircraft repair, maintenance and overhaul, Lufthansa Industry Solutions (LHIND) has now become a 100% subsidiary of Lufthansa Technik. This means Lufthansa Technik will now be able to draw on the expertise of some 2,300 digital experts while continuing to concentrate on LHIND's customer growth.
Lufthansa Technik will now be able to provide further digital services in addition to the recently announced Digital Tech Ops Ecosystem. Also, Lufthansa Technik recently announced the acquisition of AMOS, the leading software for aircraft technical support. In acquiring LHIND, the digital transformation of the MRO industry has now taken another major step as IT experts will work even more closely with Lufthansa Technik on the digitization of core MRO processes with the intention of improving products with faster turnaround times and competitive prices for customers. In addition, the expanded collaboration with LHIND will enable additional services related to Lufthansa Technik's Digital Tech Ops Ecosystem, providing access to virtually the entire tech ops data stream and thus enabling a wide range of unprecedented digital analytics in the technical operations process.
LHIND currently supports the principal players of the ecosystem AVIATAR, AMOS, and flydocs and will further expand its services including the implementation and integration of the aforementioned systems. LHIND will remain as an independent entity with its own management and market presence, continuing to grow with companies outside the aviation industry, thus expanding its strong position in the market as one of the largest IT service providers in Germany.
