When an aircraft is grounded unexpectedly, every second counts. The impact of downtime caused by AOG situations can extend well beyond maintenance and repair costs.
Airlines and operators need critical parts delivered quickly to minimise downtime and prevent the risk of lost revenue from delayed or cancelled flights. But many AOG logistics providers can’t provide full visibility throughout the supply chain.
“Traditional approaches to managing AOG situations are increasingly inadequate in today’s high-paced, data-driven environment,” says Rob Broderick, Executive Vice President of Sterling.
That’s where Sterling’s Smart Label makes all the difference.
Smart Labels provide end-to-end aviation logistics transparency
Sterling’s Smart Label uses GPS, cellular, and WiFi technologies to provide a complete view of every milestone in a shipment’s journey. With Sterling’s aviation logistics platform QuickOnline, you can access up-to-the-minute tracking details at the individual shipment level.
The result? You know exactly where AOG parts are in the process, leading to faster, smarter operational decisions.
Tracking data is powerful, but only when it’s in the hands of people who know how to act on it.
The magic happens when we combine the data gathered by the Smart Label with our internal systems and the deep logistics know-how of our team.”
