After Jet Support Services Inc. (JSSI) acquired two maintenance tracking companies nearly six months apart last year, CEO Neil Book doesn’t envision additional acquisitions ahead in the near term. Instead, his focus is on seamlessly combining SierraTrax and Traxxall into JSSI’s operations. The acquisitions are a step toward not only growing a robust maintenance tracking business but using them to further the growth of its other businesses: hourly cost maintenance; JSSI Advisory Services and Conklin & de Decker; and JSSI Parts & Leasing.
“The goal with any acquisition we’ve done or with any new business line that we’ve started, the idea has been to focus on maintenance, something where we have our historical roots,” Book told AIN. “We wanted to do something that was always going to be accretive to that core business that leverages our knowledge and expertise, and so we saw maintenance tracking as probably the most accretive opportunity in the marketplace for JSSI given our existing suite of services, products, and expertise.” With the acquisitions, Book estimates JSSI’s businesses are serving as many as 6,000 to 7,000 aircraft.
