Asia Digital Engineering (ADE), the maintenance, repair and overhaul arm of Capital A, has obtained approval from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Part 145 Maintenance Organisation which upholds the highest levels of safety and quality in its operations.
In recognition of ADE’s achievement to Malaysia’s aviation industry, YB Anthony Loke Siew Fook, Minister of Transport Malaysia said: “Congratulations to ADE on obtaining the highly acclaimed EASA Maintenance Organisation approval. This accomplishment not only underscores the nation’s commitment to adhering the highest global standards but also positions Malaysia as a hub for excellence in the aviation and aerospace industry. ADE’s dedication to high quality of service and safety serves as an inspiration to other homegrown MRO players, and we look forward to the positive impact this milestone will have on our country’s aviation and aerospace landscape.”
In addition to this significant milestone, ADE’s new state-of-the-art hangar that is currently under construction in KLIA Aeropolis is scheduled for completion by the first half of 2024. This facility will further enhance ADE’s capabilities in providing top-tier MRO services, solidifying its position as an up-and-coming player in the region’s aviation maintenance sector. The company is also in the process of establishing new component workshops to support its expanding operations.
In a bid to accommodate its growth, ADE has set an ambitious hiring target for 2024, with plans to recruit 500 to 600 aviation professionals ranging from aircraft technicians to engineers, paving the way for further growth and innovation in Malaysia’s aviation and aerospace sector.
