Locatory.com: incorporating
OEMs in a carrier’s unified
supply chain management
system
For some time now the industry
representatives have been
vigorously discussing the
intensifying role of the original
equipment manufacturers (OEM)
in the aircraft aftermarket. While
some market players are
expressing their discontent w ith
the OEMs’ intensions to gain
much more control over the MRO
services as concerns parts and
components, it has now become
obvious that OEMs have
managed to signif icantly improve
their direct communication w ith
aircraft operators, bypassing
brokers and other third parties.
How ever, many airlines do not
maintain an integrated system of
communication w ith their
suppliers and w hile contacting
OEMs directly they are depriving
themselves of the solutions,
offered by the open market.
As a result of the OEMs natural
desire to occupy a larger share
of the aftermarket, including MRO
services and parts supply,
now adays more and more
carriers choose to cooperate
w ith various original
manufacturers directly.
How ever, acquiring a new
original part is not alw ays the
best solution, particularly in the
cases w hen a carrier needs
only a temporal replacement of a
component. Unfortunately, in
case of an AOG or under any
other circumstances requiring
urgent action, carriers do not
have the time to send numerous
requests by e-mail or telephone
dozens of suppliers. It may seem
to be much more time effective to
contact the necessary OEM
directly, since it is alw ays
expected to have the required
component.
‘How ever, such expectations
might prove to be w rong, since
some OEMs actually have very
limited stock capacities.
Moreover, one should alw ays
consider that OEMs have started
penetrating the aftermarket only

relatively recently. Many
manufacturers haven’t yet fully
developed their logistics thus
making the deliveries more
expensive and less timely,’
commented the CEO of
Locatory.com Zilvinas
Sadauskas.
Though many carriers sign
supply agreements w ith OEMs
w hile acquiring new aircraft,
considering the aforementioned,
they cannot feel fully at ease
w ith regard to effective spare
parts supply. If an OEM failed to
provide the required part
promptly, carriers w ould be
forced to w aste additional time
w hile conducting the search on
the aftermarket and analysing
the received offers afterw ards.
‘Moreover, w hile OEMs tend to
be the prime component source
for the new est aircraft types,
the situation in the supply market
is constantly developing. For
instance, some third-party
suppliers have already started
scraping Boeing 737 NGs thus
supplementing the aftermarket
for the relatively new aircraft
types. For that reason, in order
to save time and ensure prompt
solutions in AOG situations,
carriers ought to integrate all
their potential suppliers including
OEMs, preferred vendors and
open market offers into one
system. Modern e-procurement
solutions minimize the need for
manual w ork by both organizing
the requests and comparing the
reply offers. Maintaining an
integrated supply management
system is sure to spare carriers
not only time, but money as w ell,’
commented Zilvinas Sadauskas.
