MRO (Maintenance, Repair, Overhaul) encompasses all activities necessary to ensure the safety, reliability and availability of aircraft (airplanes, helicopters, drones, etc.). SEGULA offers a service covering the entire MRO process. This involves taking full responsibility for the customer’s aeronautical maintenance needs, without any interruption in service or the need to call on multiple service providers.

Support from A to Z

Maintenance planning and management: defining preventive maintenance programmes, scheduling inspections and overhauls, and managing schedules.

Logistics and procurement: managing spare parts, consumables and tools required for maintenance, including storage.

Maintenance execution: performing inspections, repairs, overhauls and modifications on aircraft in accordance with applicable standards and regulations.

Documentation and record management: maintaining all maintenance records, technical documentation and certifications, ensuring regulatory compliance.

Monitoring and reporting: providing regular reports on maintenance status, costs, deadlines and performance indicators.

Online support: performing routin maintenance and resolving minor issues between flights to ensure aircraft operational availability.

Technical and engineering support: providing technical assistance, diagnostics, troubleshooting and engineering services to optimise maintenance operations.

‘By combining cutting-edge expertise, solid regulatory knowledge and a thorough understanding of industrial challenges, SEGULA provides tailor-made, high-performance solutions to optimise maintenance operations and reduce downtime. The result: guaranteed high aircraft availability.’

Sales Director Aeronautics

 AT SEGULA, MRO HAS THREE OBJECTIVES:

⏵Ensure that aircraft remain airworthy, i.e. that they comply with safety and operating standards.
⏵Extend the service life of aircraft and their components.
⏵Optimise airlines’ operating costs.

THIS INVOLVES THE FOLLOWING ACTIVITIES:

⏵Preventive maintenance: regular inspections, replacement of parts and checks to prevent breakdowns.
⏵Corrective maintenance: repairs following breakdowns or detected problems.
⏵General overhaul: complete disassembly of aircraft for thorough inspections and major repairs.
⏵Modifications and upgrades: installation of new technologies or structural modifications to improve performance or compliance.

A WIDE RANGE OF PROFESSIONS

The skills of technicians have been recognised for several years, with a high customer satisfaction rate. Faced with market pressure regarding the skills of PART 66 B or C licensed mechanics and docmans, SEGULA has set up targeted training courses to meet the needs of its customers, in partnership with schools for the qualification of mechanics, and with RTE for the training of docmans.

MAINTENANCE ANDSTRUCTURAL REPAIR

Aircraft adjusters are responsible for adjusting, assembling and repairing aircraft structures (fuselage, wings or other structural components). Aviation boilermakers work with metals to manufacture and repair aircraft parts, often using welding techniques.

Composite technicians specialise in handling and repairing composite materials used in aircraft.

MANAGEMENT, SUPERVISION AND NAVIGABILITY

Maintenance managers oversee maintenance operations and ensure compliance with regulations.

Maintenance planners schedule activities, manage resources and coordinate schedules.

The docman manages all MRO documentation, from creating and updating technical manuals to regulatory compliance and management system administration.

SYSTEM MECHANICS AND MAINTENANCE

Part 66 B or C licensed mechanics

Mechanical (B1) or avionics (B2) mechanics perform routine maintenance onvaircraft on the ground between flights.

Mechanical (B1) or avionics (B2) maintenance technicians perform variousvlevels of maintenance (VI/VP/GV) at the base.

ENGINEERING AND DESIGN

Part 66 C licensed mechanics or docmans

Aeronautical design: Some MRO professionals are involved in aircraft design and modification through RDAS repair solutions or STC modifications.

Maintenance support engineering plays a crucial role in providing technical support and solutions to maintenance teams.
