AMETEK Singapore PTE has been named a Honeywell authorised repair centre (ARC) for solid-state flight data recorders and cockpit voice recorders for Airbus A320/A330/A340 and Boeing 737NG/737Max/777 aircraft. The five-year agreement covers full test and repair capability for these Honeywell products enabling AMETEK MRO to provide customer support worldwide.
AMETEK MRO (Muirhead Avionics and AMETEK Singapore) all have existing ARC agreements with Honeywell and Muirhead Avionics has provided download, readout and testing on these components since 2016. This new FDR/CVR licence agreement provides additional work-scope approvals allowing further penetration into OEM-centric markets in Asia and Europe for those customers requiring OEM-only material through the utilisation of strategically located facilities in Singapore and the United Kingdom.
David Corish, Divisional Vice President & General Manager of AMETEK Singapore PTE, emphasises the Company’s core strategy of supporting both legacy and new platforms with best-in-class solutions for customers. “This agreement expands our long-standing relationship with Honeywell and strengthens our presence in the market. Honeywell has confidence in our OEM-trained technicians and our extensive history of customer support. Importantly, AMETEK MRO offers a highly diverse range of sustainable OEM support programmes and we are passionate about keeping units on-wing and back to serviceable condition as quickly as possible.”
Corish explains that Singapore is a very active region for partnerships and collaborations, and according to market data, it will dominate global growth trends. “AMETEK MRO Singapore has the financial backing it needs to prioritise innovation and expand capabilities for new and older platforms. The organisation’s multi-skilled and agile workforce is geared-up to align with the objectives of OEMs as they concentrate on the technology of tomorrow.”
The provision of comprehensive maintenance solutions, particularly in regions such as Asia Pacific where Europe- and U.S.-based MROs continue to seek a collaborative approach to provide viable repair options from a logistics point of view, is a cornerstone of AMETEK MRO’s business.
