Embraer Launches New Maintenance Support Program

'Tool on Time' Program Now Available In Europe, Africa

Embraer officially launched the Tool on Time (ToT) program at the MRO USA 2008 Conference and Exhibition, April 15-17, in Fort Lauderdale, FL. The new material solutions program offers an inventory of over 130 maintenance tools and ground support equipment, and is currently available for customers in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.

"The Tool on Time is a natural improvement of our spare parts pooling program strategy," said Johann Bordais, Aviation Services Sales and Contracts Senior Manager for Embraer Aviation International (EAI). "The program reflects the continuous improvement Embraer is bringing to its services portfolio, in order to offer a full support to operators who want not only to optimize their repairable part management, but also to apply this proven concept to the most critical tools and ground support equipment."

The objective of the ToT is to complement the Pool program by providing customers with all the materials they need to perform aircraft maintenance and repair, including state-of-the-art equipment used for specific procedures, thus avoiding additional investments in low-usage tools and reducing initial disbursements and maintenance costs.

The Pool program quickly provides replacement parts and eliminates the need for inventory investments, via an agreement in which the customer pays a given amount, based on the number of flight hours of the aircraft enrolled in the program. Embraer assumes the responsibility for maintaining a parts inventory at its distribution and service centers, in order to provide parts to operators as soon as they are requested.

Both programs are designed to reduce overhead investments in spare parts and ground support equipment and eliminate inventory management costs for the operators. The parts and equipment needed to keep the aircraft in perfect flying condition are always available to the customer, on Embraer premises, assuring greater cost and budget control.
