MRO provider SR Technics has added VIP consulting services for completions and refurbishment (C&amp;R) of wide- and narrow-body VIP aircraft and business jets to its offerings. The C&amp;R assistance is augmented by new maintenance and lifetime support programs covering aircraft during and between scheduled downtimes. All are available worldwide in full-service and customized packages and can be provided at the customer’s base, a modification center or remotely, the company said.

 


The C&amp;R services cover design concept, proposal and contract, engineering, production, and testing and redelivery, capped by “downstream” services that manage the aircraft from completion to operation. In addition to marshaling internal resources to meet client needs, SR Technics said it will use its “unique and rapid access to a range of experts in related fields” to advance projects “without the need of hiring third parties.”

 


Maintenance support includes coordination with CAMO, on-site representation at OEM or service center, and review of cabin work at maintenance induction. Preparation of work packages and review of commercial quotes are among lifetime support services.

 


The Zurich-based company counts its “Swissness”—encompassing customer focus, a structured way of working, and attention to detail—among the consultancy’s competitive advantages.

News and developments about everything that goes into the cabin of an aircraft, from floor coverings to headliners, with a special emphasis on in-flight entertainment, communications and other electronics for passengers. If it is in the cabin of an aircraft, it’s covered here.
