Problems
Process inefficiencies, caused by large amount of paper
involved:
Aircraft configuration control
Maintenance task performance
Parts tracking
Maintenance record - keeping
-
Before After (significant changes)
Paperless Cockpit Well Advanced
-
Paperless Maintenance Still a Challenge
Records Records
Before After (few real changes)
OEM manuals on tape Manual stores control Paper tech log Paper component certs Paper service records

Part B
???
What parts are on the plane?
Are those right (compliant to airworthiness) parts?
- Original aircraft part
- Modified or different from original aircraft part
FAA, EASA

Lease #1
Lease #1 return
Lease #2
-
Is it part B or part A OK to install ?
Interchangeability with other parts? Part B
Part A
IPC ? Need to go check the manual (paper)
Part B
WHAT modifications are completed TODAY at the remote maintenance
station? (Real time data)
Can the task be signed off electronically?
Need to fill out the paper task, sign it and
send it back to planning department
Maintenance task performance
- Repaired or new (serviceable) aircraft part
- Modified or different from original aircraft part

Solutions
Aircraft parts e-tagging
E-signature for maintenance records
E-LogBook for timely maintenance action response and
component data update
On-line repair tracking services
Maintenance contract templates
-
Solution: parts e-tagging Radio Frequency tag with the birth data is attached to the
part (ancillary to name plate)
Information from the tag is read and populated to database electronically
The tag has space for re-recordable data to facilitate specific needs of the user
tags readers
Mandatory data:
Part number Serial number Manufacturer Date of manufacture Optional data:
(FH since new (overhaul) (FC since new (overhaul) (A/C tail installed) (date installed) (date removed) (reason of removal) (repaired by) (release certificate) (.)
-
Solution: e-signature
Release certificates (FAA 8130-3, EASA From 1) signed and transferred electronically
Maintenance manuals are accessed electronically
Maintenance tasks are signed off electronically
Revisions of maintenance manuals, MOE, MME, CAMO are made and approved by CAA electronically
Tablet, I Pad Mobile phone, IPhone
-
Solution: e-LogBook
Maintenance problem is communicated to ground
immediately at occurrence
Meet aircraft with a part and a tool, not with a paper!
Operation data (Flight Hours, Flight cycles) electronically
updated on component RF tag from e-LogBook
(automatically or on request Eurocopter)

Simplified paperless maintenance is inevitable and already
underway, albeit in a fragmented, uncoordinated fashion
IATA is the only body capable of coordinating
this multi-stakeholder, complex industry effort

Project Vision
To simplify maintenance operations by incorporating paperless technologies, thereby
facilitating regulatory compliance and enabling new processes to reduce costs
Define Standards Coordinate Stakeholders

Challenges
New OR existing fleet types and parts?
Standards
Wireless internet availability
Stakeholders understanding and commitment
Investment and Operational Costs assessment
Timeline to implementation
Regulatory acceptance
Data Ownership
-
Benefits and cost saving opportunities (1)
Avoiding delays and cancellations (lost, misplaced parts)
Visibility and traceability of the parts (inventory control)
Easier and more reliable airworthiness compliance
Reducing maintenance costs by using used parts with
back-to-birth history vs. buying new parts
-
Benefits and cost saving opportunities (2)
Saving Lease fees on Redelivery process
Man Hour savings and optimization in maintenance
inspections
Reducing the time out of operation for an aircraft part
Better asset management (aircraft value)
