ATR and Swiss-AS team up to improve digitalization of airline maintenance management

Regional aircraft manufacturer ATR and Swiss-As, a leading MRO software company, have entered into a partnership with the intention of improving the digitalization of airline maintenance management.

This is the first collaboration of this type between an aircraft manufacturer and a software company. Through it the two companies will strive to improve and customize the integration of ATR maintenance data into the AMOS software provided by Swiss-AS to ATR operators. The goal is to help airlines to digitalise their maintenance management in the optimum way with a software tailored to their specific needs and operational constraints.

At present, the integration of technical publications, provided by the OEM into the software solution is the responsibility of the operator and often requires the use of standalone systems and middleware to manage data integrity and revisions.

ATR is spearheading the utilization of S1000D for the maintenance documents. Thanks to this partnership, AMOS can induct from ATR AMM, AWM, ESPM, IPC, TSM and MEL in S1000D seamlessly. In the development of the partnership, the intention will also be to include the integration of the operator maintenance programme via S1000D CAMO Engineers, Production Planners/Engineers, Maintenance Controllers, Trouble shooters will benefit from such integration, both from AMOSdesktop and AMOSmobile/EXEC in the near future.
