HAECO, a leading global provider of aircraft engineering and maintenance services, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Satair, an Airbus Services company, to explore the development of a consignment supply programme supporting HAECO’s maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations.

The MoU marks a shared intention to evaluate a structured supply chain solution designed to enhance material availability and support efficient maintenance activities. It reflects both companies’ commitment to strengthening collaboration and addressing the evolving needs of the aviation aftermarket.

Through this potential programme, HAECO and Satair will work together to define the product range, inventory positioning, and logistical requirements. The goal is to create a tailored solution that simplifies material management and improves supply chain reliability, ensuring parts are strategically positioned to support HAECO's operations. This initiative builds on a long-standing relationship and represents a further step towards more integrated material support.

Dr. Christian Pinter, General Manager, Group Procurement at HAECO Group, added: "This MoU reflects our ongoing focus on strengthening supply chain resilience and supporting our MRO activities with reliable material solutions. We look forward to working closely with Satair to explore how this collaboration can enhance our operational performance and deliver value to our customers."

Tommy Hughes, Chief Commercial Officer of Satair, commented: "We are pleased to sign this MoU with HAECO and continue building on our long-standing partnership. By exploring a consignment-based solution, we aim to further support HAECO’s operations with improved flexibility, availability, and efficiency across their supply chain."
