Pain Points
Maintenance and Calibration Process Causing Regulatory Risks and Workflow Delays:
Maintenance and calibration of tools in MROs are manual processes, necessitating efforts to track tools due for calibration, prevent the use of overdue tools (which have regulatory consequences), and recall units worked on with overdue tools as a corrective action. Additionally, mismanagement of tools in calibration can disrupt the repair process, as technicians depend on these tools to complete work orders, causing workflow delays and compliance issues.
Chemical Management Challenges:
MROs face difficulties in chemical management, low stock levels can create operational roadblocks. Various departments share chemicals without full stock visibility.
Searching for Tools Impacting Shopfloor Efficiencies:
Technicians in MROs spend significant time searching for tools on the shopfloor, which can result in significant delays of 30 minutes to 1 hour per work order. These inefficiencies directly impact customer turnaround times and have the potential to lead to delays and customer dissatisfaction, affecting the overall efficiency of the operation.
Heath, Safety and Quality Assurance:
Strict and evolving regulations from aviation authorities (ie. FAA, EASA) require MRO facilities to constantly adapt their processes to ensure compliance. Ensuring the health and safety of workers, especially when handling hazardous materials or performing complex tasks is crucial.
Solutions
Implement a real-time tracking system for maintenance and calibration of tooling that automates tool tracking, schedules maintenance, and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements. Create a preventative mechanism for the use of overdue tools, and send automated reminders for calibration, thereby reducing regulatory risks and workflow delays.
Implement a Chemical Inventory Management System that utilizes RFID technology and sensors to provide real-time visibility into chemical stock levels and usage across different departments, ensuring that adequate stock is always available, and optimize waste management.
Implement a digital tool tracking and management system that utilizes RFID technology and real-time location tracking to provide technicians with the precise location of tools on the shopfloor. The solution can also enable proactive alerts and notifications to streamline the maintenance and calibration process.
Establish a comprehensive Health, Safety, and Quality Assurance (HSQA) program that includes regular training, audits, and process improvements to ensure compliance with aviation regulations and prioritize the health and safety of workers. Monitor in real-time any deviations from standard processes through digital solutions, track and trace non-compliance and corrective actions directly into visualization boards and lead by example.
