Executing aviation maintenance often involves the deployment of personnel to scattered locations:
- line maintenance is conducted at gates and field locations throughout an airport
- heavy maintenance work involves moving about in large hangars and within aircraft (which also may be very large)
- shop maintenance is typically carried out at assigned benches or stands
On top of that, aviation maintenance is data-intensive, in terms of both the information that must be delivered to the technician (such as work orders and work instructions) and the information that must be collected and recorded (inspection findings or parts changes).
For these reasons, wireless devices are a natural fit for the aviation maintenance environment. When deployed onto portable wireless devices, Maintenix® brings the additional benefits of improved maintenance efficiency and improved data accuracy. Maintenix can also be integrated with advanced electronic Technical Publications systems to achieve an unprecedented level of automated information delivery and collection using mobile devices. In addition, using Maintenix electronic signature technology on wireless devices enables the adoption of a paperless maintenance environment.
