Product
Comprehensive MRO services deliver airframe heavy checks, line maintenance, and modifications that keep fleets airworthy and compliant, supporting airline, cargo, and defense operators. Workscopes are tailored by aircraft type and utilization profile to optimize intervals across a global commercial fleet that surpassed 30,000 aircraft in 2024. Emphasis on turn-time, quality, and regulatory adherence minimizes ground time and supports the roughly $95 billion global MRO market in 2024. These capabilities create measurable reliability and safety advantages for operators.
Component repair and overhaul covers shop services for avionics, landing gear, pneumatics, hydraulics and structures with test, repair, overhaul and calibration to OEM or FAA/EASA‑approved data. Exchange pools reduce aircraft downtime while repairs proceed and support AOG response. Full traceability and manufacturer‑backed warranties reinforce confidence and extend asset lifecycle value.
AAR's parts supply and distribution leverages a global inventory of new, serviceable and rotable components with certification, supporting 24/7 AOG response and planned maintenance. Industry estimates place AOG costs up to $100,000 per hour for widebodies, underscoring the value of rapid availability. Kitting and provisioning streamline checks and mods, while supplier relationships and demand forecasting boost fill rates and reduce carrying costs; the global MRO market was about $88B in 2024.
Engineering and manufacturing solutions
Engineering and manufacturing solutions deliver STC development, design services, PMA parts and tooling that improve performance and cut costs; STC and cabin/avionics/structural upgrades are tailored to mission profiles to increase asset utilization. Reliability engineering lowered in-service failure rates and maintenance hours, while compliance documentation supports regulators and audit readiness in 2024–25.
- STC development: mission-aligned upgrades
- PMA parts: lower lifecycle cost
- Tooling: performance and cost gains
- Reliability: fewer failures, less maintenance
- Compliance: regulator/audit-ready
Integrated fleet and program support
Integrated nose-to-tail packages deliver PBH, material management, and logistics with embedded teams that coordinate planning, reliability, and inventory across programs.
Data-driven dashboards provide SLA visibility and cost transparency, enabling continuous improvement and measurable reductions in AOG and inventory carrying costs.
Solution scales across mixed fleets and civilian and defense use cases, supporting rapid surge capacity and lifecycle sustainment.
- PBH coverage
- Embedded planning teams
- Dashboard SLAs
- Mixed-fleet scalability
Integrated nose-to-tail MRO, component overhaul, parts distribution and engineering reduce downtime and extend asset value for airlines, cargo and defense. Global commercial fleet exceeded 30,000 aircraft in 2024 and the global MRO market was about $88B in 2024, with AOG costs up to $100,000/hour for widebodies. Data-driven PBH and dashboards improve SLA visibility and inventory turns.
| Metric | Value | Year |
|---|---|---|
| Commercial fleet | 30,000+ | 2024 |
| Global MRO market | $88B | 2024 |
| AOG cost (widebody) | Up to $100,000/hr | 2024 |

Place
AAR's global MRO facility network places 10 strategic sites near major air corridors to enable efficient inductions, cutting ferry distances and cycle time. Facilities support heavy checks on both narrowbody and widebody fleets, with combined heavy-check capacity of 400+ checks annually. Standardized processes across locations drive consistent quality and reduced logistics costs.
On-site line maintenance and rapid-response mobile teams are dispatched to customer bases, offering 24/7 AOG coverage to restore dispatch reliability and minimize revenue loss. Tooling and parts staging drive first-time fix rates above 80% (industry benchmark), reducing average AOG downtime and schedule slippage. This approach limits operational disruption and supports contractual on-time performance metrics.
AAR operates online portals for parts availability, RFQs and order tracking, complemented by API/EDI links to airline ERPs for automated replenishment. Maintenance data sharing improves planning accuracy and real-time visibility shortens procurement cycles. AAR reported roughly $1.8 billion revenue in FY2024, supporting continued digital channel investment.
Warehousing and logistics hubs
Regional distribution centers with bonded/FTZ capabilities enable duty deferral and streamlined customs clearance, supporting demand-driven stocking and vendor-managed inventory to reduce stockouts and working capital. Cold-chain and hazardous-handling infrastructure meets regulatory cold-storage and ADR/HAZMAT standards, while carrier partnerships accelerate last-mile delivery and improve SLA compliance.
- Bonded/FTZ: duty deferral, faster clearance
- VMI & demand-driven stocking: lower OPEX, fewer stockouts
- Cold-chain & hazardous: compliant storage/handling
- Carrier partnerships: faster last-mile, better SLAs
Commercial, government, and defense routes
Access spans carriers, ~5,000 commercial airlines, major lessors managing ~40% of global fleet, cargo operators and state entities; air cargo market ~USD 370B (2024). Contracts require defense procurement standards (DFARS, AS9100) and strict export controls; secure supply chains and ITAR compliance are enforced. Program offices coordinate 5–20 year sustainment and spare-part plans tied to multi-year budgets.
- Access: airlines, lessors, cargo, states
- Market: cargo ~USD 370B (2024)
- Compliance: DFARS, AS9100, ITAR
