EXSYN Aviation Solutions (EXSYN) has announced the deployment of its predictive spare parts planning capability at Volotea, enhancing the airline’s ability to forecast material demand months and even years in advance. Built on EXSYN’s modular aviation data platform, the solution is set to transform the way Volotea plans, procures and positions spare parts across its maintenance network.
Developed in close collaboration between EXSYN and Volotea, the new capability leverages the company’s long-term forecasting functionality to combine data from the airline’s maintenance programme with historical unscheduled maintenance events. This integrated approach enables Volotea to allocate materials more strategically, optimise procurement cycles and reduce unplanned AOG exposure across multiple bases.
“Data-driven material planning is a key enabler for efficient and resilient maintenance operations,” commented Sander de Bree, CEO of EXSYN. “Working together with Volotea, we’ve connected forecasting intelligence directly to logistics workflows, turning trusted operational data into tangible cost and reliability gains.”
The capability introduces a long-term, data-driven approach to material forecasting, reshaping how airlines plan and manage spare parts throughout their maintenance operations. The initiative is expected to improve forecasting accuracy and significantly reduce annual spare parts purchasing costs by minimising AOG-related surcharges and enabling more efficient material allocation.
“Predictive spare parts planning is a natural next step in our digital maintenance journey,” stated Matías Datino, Technical Senior Director Volotea and the logistics team. “By combining our operational experience with EXSYN’s data expertise, we can anticipate material needs earlier and ensure our maintenance network is better prepared to support our growing operations.”
Volotea will use the Long-Term Forecasting capability to anticipate material requirements based on maintenance patterns and fleet utilisation. These insights feed directly into Exsyn’s Logistics & Supply Chain application, which manages stock positions and part movements between maintenance locations, ensuring that critical components are available ahead of demand.
