China Airlines and Boeing announced yesterday that the airline will use Maintenance Performance Toolbox, Boeing’s award-winning, computer-based maintenance solution. China Airlines is the first airline in the world to use Toolbox in conjunction with another critical component of Boeing’s e-Enabled maintenance and performance products: Maintenance and Engineering Management (MEM). China Airlines adopted MEM (then called Enterprise One) in 2005 to coordinate and standardize maintenance activities across its entire fleet of airplanes.
“China Airlines has become an industry leader in terms of adopting the necessary tools to make sure that its maintenance operation is collecting and using the information it needs to perform efficiently,” said Boeing Commercial Aviation Services.
MEM coordinates and simplifies an airline’s maintenance operations by automating workflows; optimizing schedules of people, parts, and tools; and streamlining processes to simplify regulatory compliance. Most important, MEM performs these functions while improving efficiency and saving money.
China Airlines now flies to 65 passenger and cargo destinations in 23 countries. It operates a fleet of 67 modern aircraft, including 48 passenger jets and 19 freighters. The average age of its fleet is just 4.8 years.
