Aircraft MRO Market Dynamics

Aircraft MRO Market Drivers

Rising in aviation MRO software is accelerating market growth

  • Rising investments in aviation MRO software is expected to create new growth prospects for the global Aircraft MRO market. Aircraft MRO software contains software components for maintenance monitoring, maintenance scheduling, logbook tracking, budget forecasting, manuals, flying time tracking, electronic task card management, service bulletin management, and work order administration. 
  • It also has elements that aid in compliance with regulatory agencies such as the FAA and ICAO. It is primarily used to streamline maintenance processes and reduce downtime. It has been extensively modified as a result of the changes related with big data and analytics in the aviation industry. This industry creates a massive quantity of data, which will help MRO companies improve operational efficiency and provide customized solutions that meet the needs of airlines.

Aircraft MRO Market Restains

Labour shortages and rising material costs are posing challenges to the market

  • The aircraft MRO industry is facing challenges due to manpower shortage, growing labour prices, an aging workforce, and a decline in interest in the maintenance technician job role among newly graduating engineers. 
  • Without a significant change, this pattern is expected to continue during the projected period. Right-shorting and outsourcing are two solutions that are more important to MRO businesses. Increasing material costs are becoming a major factor driving market expansion. MRO firms are attempting to shield themselves through strategic partnerships with OEMs. It will also aid in the real-time acquisition of aircraft parts and components.

  • In October 2021, AAR, a prominent provider of MRO services to commercial and government operators, announced the renewal of its power-by-the-hour (PBH) component pool and repair support for flydubai's Boeing 737NG fleet. The new five-year deal expands on a 2016 partnership to provide comprehensive rotating component support for flydubai's 737NG fleet.

Aircraft MRO Key Market Trends

  • The narrow-body aircrafts are smaller airplanes suitable for short-distance cross-border and domestic flights. Because of its small size narrow-body aircraft may carry over 295 passengers over a short distance route.
  • The aircraft MRO sector is heavily reliant on a fleet of narrow-body aircraft. For example, Lufthansa Technik AG signed a total component maintenance agreement with Jet Airway's fleet of 80 Boeing 737NG in March 2018. The goal is to provide single parts repair at a flat fee using a closed-loop approach.

Aircraft MRO Market SkyQuest Analysis

SkyQuest’s ABIRAW (Advanced Business Intelligence, Research & Analysis Wing) is our business information services team that collects, collates, co-relates, and analyses the data collected by means of primary exploratory research backed by the robust secondary desk research.

According to the global aircraft MRO market report analysis, a growing number of air passenger carriers, as a result of an increasing number of passengers preferring to fly, is predicted to increase demand for MRO facilities. The loosening of restrictions on foreign direct investment in the airline industry is encouraging airlines to outsource maintenance tasks to ensure the seamless operation of aircraft.
