Will Base Services At Four Primary Service Centers
Orolia has signed an agreement with OEMServices to provide global airline AOG (aircraft on ground) support for its Kannad brand emergency locator transmitters (ELTs).
OEMServices will base its Orolia AOG services supporting more than 200 airlines worldwide using Kannad ELTs at four of its primary service centers: Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport (CDG), Dubai International Airport (DXB), Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (KATL).
OEMServices has been an Orolia distributor since 2015 and began providing AOG support for Kannad ELTs in January 2018. More specifically, this support includes a 24/7 AOG desk and hotline to answer operators’ urgent needs within one hour, two other levels of service with critical and routine requests, as well as standard exchanges when required. OEMServices’ expertise will ensure that adequate solutions are immediately provided to minimize operational interruptions and rapidly enable the aircraft’s airworthiness.
“We are very excited to have OEMServices providing AOG services to our airline customers around the world,” said Christian Belleux, Aviation Product Line Director at Orolia. “AOG support is all about eliminating downtime for our customers, so maintaining strategic supplies of our Kannad products at these four OEMServices service centers greatly enhances the level of service that customers can expect from Orolia.”
"This new agreement with Orolia adds another important scope of components to our expanding AOG portfolio,” said Didier Granger, OEMServices President. “We have been an Orolia distributor since 2015 and now are very pleased and motivated to support the AOG activities of this important partner.”
Orolia provides a range of fixed and portable Kannad ELTs to 30 aircraft manufacturers and has sold more than 65,000 Kannad ELTs to customers around the world. The company recently announced its new GADSS ELT-DT distress transmitter which provides complete autonomous aircraft tracking to help airlines comply with the upcoming GADSS requirement.
