Aircraft Spares, Parts Distribution & AOG
Aircraft Spares & Parts Distribution is the supply chain behind every line and base maintenance event: aftermarket and surplus part traders, OEM-authorised distributors, component pooling and exchange programmes, teardown and asset-management houses, and the round-the-clock AOG (Aircraft-On-Ground) desks that source critical parts under hours-not-days pressure. This is a procurement function distinct from MRO labour — the buyer is sourcing the physical part, certificate of conformity attached, often against a grounded aircraft. Specification turns on traceability (FAA 8130-3 / EASA Form 1), lead time, and price. With the Gulf carriers running large young wide-body fleets and the region positioning as a net MRO exporter, regional parts-distribution and AOG capability is a growing buy-side need.
