Ontic, a global provider of aerospace OEM and MRO services, is expanding its MRO operations with the opening of new facilities. This expansion is part of Ontic's strategic plan to provide reliable, cost-effective, and high-quality MRO services to operators, airlines, and OEMs worldwide.
The first of these new facilities is currently under construction in Miramar, Florida, and is set to begin operations later this quarter. Additional sites are planned for locations that offer strong talent pools and easy access to customers and logistics networks.
Jack Karapetyan, Vice President and General Manager of MRO at Ontic, is leading this expansion. With over 11 years at Ontic and extensive experience in the aerospace industry, Karapetyan is well-positioned to guide the company's MRO division. He emphasised the growing demand for MRO services, driven by the high demand for air travel and challenges in the availability of new aircraft, which makes fleet maintenance increasingly crucial.
Ontic's new facilities will be equipped with advanced repair technologies, dedicated resources, and streamlined processes, ensuring fast turnaround times and high-quality service. Florida was chosen for its skilled workforce, with several Ontic employees relocating to support operational continuity. Karapetyan also noted the increasing trend of operators outsourcing MRO services to reduce costs and improve efficiency.
This expansion underscores Ontic's commitment to becoming one of the prominent players in the MRO market, driven by a customer-first approach.
