A difficult choice... If you re looking for a provider for base maintenance for one of your aircraft, today s MRO landscape offers a lot of choice. What used to be the royal discipline in aircraft base maintenance just a few decades ago is now part of the standard offer of MRO providers all over the world. Lots of them can perform base maintenance, and their sales texts, such as We are a part 145-approved maintenance, repair and overhaul organization strategically based in, and perform maintenance up to and including D-checks for, don t provide much help in the decision-making process. If the only thing at stake is the base maintenance of single aircraft at individual locations, there are lots of players in the same league. Vital questions for fleet base maintenance When you re choosing the right provider for base maintenance for your fleet, you need an answer to some critical questions: How can I get my fleet through a base maintenance program precisely tuned to my flight plan in x years? And since I don t know yet what my flight plan will look like next year, how can I ensure the necessary flexibility? What kind of price development do I need to factor in, and will the MRO provider I choose really keep his promises? And last, but not least: Where am I supposed to find the time to solicit all those bids and negotiate the contracts? We ve got a clear answer to all these questions.

Lufthansa Technik puts airline-proven solutions from across the Lufthansa Technik Group s network to work to solve any technical problems your aircraft may have. And thanks to service guarantees and transparent performance measurements, the operator retains control and the ability to monitor its fleet s base maintenance program at all times. Integrated material logistics support To us, it s self-evident that state-of-the art logistics and component support that is airline-proven and can handle every request, routine and non-routine, no matter how delicate, should be part of a commitment to Total Support. For Lufthansa Technik customer fleets that already rely on Total Component Support (TCS ), it s easy to apply this modular logistics support concept to a TBS package and thus gain a means of effectively managing materials support for aircraft checks. This combination can be the key to a successful base maintenance program that is both cost-effective and efficient over the long term. Layover component support TBS customers who don t currently have a Lufthansa Technik Total Component Support contract may find Lufthansa Technik s Management of Component Overhaul and Repair (MORE) product a valuable addition to their base maintenance contracts. MORE is an airline-proven component support package specifically developed to support aircraft layovers. Irrespective of where the layover takes place, the integration of MORE into the Total Base Maintenance Support process guarantees the availability of components within the layover, and helps to minimize risks associated with aircraft base maintenance programs.
