Magnetic MRO, a global provider of Total Technical Care for aircraft operators and lessors, made a significant step towards becoming a fully paperless MRO. The company has decided to digitalize paper-based aircraft maintenance work orders, as well as introduce biometric e-signatures for aviation mechanics and other certifying staff.
Paper documents made their job back in those days when there was no other reliable alternative for keeping track of aircraft maintenance works. But today, highly secure digital storage systems provide an unprecedented level of reliability and security against manipulations or unauthorized edits,โ comments Jan Kotka, the COO of Magnetic MRO. โWith this in mind, weโve made yet another important step towards a paperless environment by digitalizing aircraft maintenance work orders and securing them with fingerprint signatures. The new system has already received an approval from Estonian CAA.โ
“Biometric e-signature and digital storage bring document management to a new level of transparency and security. Further on, the new system eliminates an unnecessary and time-consuming process of delivering work orders from the engineering department to maintenance shops and vice versa. What is particularly delighting, our clients will also benefit from the system, since all aircraft-related documents will now be available even faster,โ shared Sergei Shkolnik, Magnetic MROโs Base Maintenance Director.
