There are multiple factors which have the potential to cause bottlenecks in shop visit schedules, but two of the most prevalent are unreliable supply chains and workforce considerations. Taking each of these in turn, what are the strategies and measures that MROs must employ to reduce the disruption to their workflows and keep industry moving? What supply chains flows must be developed to ensure operational efficiency? And what training and personal development programmes can ensure a stable, well trained workforce as MRO demand increases?

Panel Discussion: USM Availability & Pricing With operators generally holding onto assets there is a lot of speculation around pricing and subsequent asset values. With a bow-wave of materials still expected, what will be the impact down the value chain? Many stakeholders are on hold to see which engines come for breakdown and when. What views do the operators have? What impact, if any, is the cargo market likely to have on values and life expectancy of certain engines?

Afternoon Coffee & Networking Break
Panel Discussion: Data & Digitalisation: implementation, training & business case for investment With a broad range of digital products on the market, both third party and in-house, what are the implementation and training considerations for digital products. Ultimately, what can engineers do with this data? How can the technology best be harnessed to drive efficiencies and what are the barriers to this? Furthermore, looking at the investment decision for these technologies, is it simply a ‘buy or build’ choice, or are there further business considerations to make? Moderator: Vivek Saxena, Managing Director, Advisory Aerospace SOC Speakers: Joseph Galko, Director of Professional Services, Continnum Applied Technologies Paula Hay, VP, Operations Modernization, Collins Aerospace
4:30pm
Cybersecurity: Predictive maintenance and data transfer between stakeholders The gains to be made from predictive maintenance are clear, but the implementation process remains time intensive, putting many operators off. An important piece of this and barrier to entry for an IoT system is the concern around cyber security. With an exponentially increasing number of access points, what steps must be taken to ensure system safety? What are the training requirements for these systems? As systems become more widespread, what additional conversations must be had between operators, lessors, and MROs?
