The GECAS Aircraft Component Management service is a comprehensive program of financing, inventory optimization, and parts management that will help you reduce capital investment and improve on-time performance. We optimize your spare parts inventory using LogisTechs™ technology. This ensures that the right parts are in the right place at the right time for all your heavy- and line-maintenance requirements.

The Aircraft Component Management service is available for Airbus A320, Boeing 737NG, Bombardier CRJ, and Embraer ERJ aircraft types. The spare parts inventory is maintained at your airline's existing line stations where needed to provide the level of inventory coverage you want, for a fixed price per flight hour. What's more, GECAS offers
a performance guarantee as part of the management, planning and logistics service. A third-party handles the parts repair process or you can oversee the
repair process in-house.

GECAS offers a solution based on proven technology for planning and managing inventory for the unique and strict requirements of a commercial airline. Current inventory planning techniques plan for parts one at a time. They don't provide any help in selecting the most critical components within the available budget, nor do they consider the best mix of inventory across your network of stations. Our LogisTechs™ technology allows us to guarantee a service level at each line station where you need your parts.

Save precious cash

		We purchase your existing inventory at fair market value, free-up surplus parts, and provide an immediate cash infusion to your business, taking millions in underperforming assets off your balance sheet.
		We manage all your future inventory requirements. As your fleet grows and your operation changes, you won’t need to outlay any additional cash for your parts inventory - we have it covered. Most airlines buy too much of the wrong inventory.

Focus on your business

		We’re in the business of financing and managing inventory. You want to focus on running the airline. Our service allows you to get out of the complicated and time-consuming business of managing your parts inventory.
		We are focused on providing a comprehensive program that will reduce existing costs and improve on-time performance for your airline.

Gain predictable fixed costs

		Now, spare-part support becomes a line item in your operating costs - one that you can clearly see, understand, and count on in the future. You know exactly what you are getting, and exactly what you are paying for.
		Many airlines that own and manage their own inventory struggle with trying to understand the true costs of this function. GECAS offers fixed rate per flight hour programs with guaranteed service levels that give you the ultimate in cost control and visibility without the administrative burden.

Performance GUARANTEED

		We guarantee performance where it counts: at the point of use. We take responsibility for fulfilling demand at your heavy and line maintenance stations.
		Backed by our decades of experience in the aviation industry, our performance guarantees are based on meaningful measures that we regularly track and report.
		If your operation requires a 90 percent service level guarantee, GECAS will ensure the right part is at the right place 90 percent of the time or we pay a penalty according to the terms of the contract.
		We have every incentive to meet or exceed the performance guarantees that we develop jointly with your airline.
