Boeing today announced services orders and agreements worth up to $2.1B that provide customers more value throughout the lifecycle of their investments. The contracts and agreements span commercial and government customers.
“Our customers’ greatest needs drive Boeing’s services offerings and investments,” said Stan Deal, president and CEO of Boeing Global Services. “Orders and agreements affirm that we’re delivering on our promise to make their assets and operations more efficient and less expensive, and create new opportunities to bring them end-to-end solutions that only Boeing can offer.”
Today’s agreements bridge across Global Services’ four capability areas, including supply chain; engineering, modifications and maintenance; digital aviation and analytics; and training and professional services.
Customer orders and agreements include in part:
• Atlas Air signed an agreement for 20 Landing Gear Exchanges for its 747-8 fleet. Through the program, operators receive an overhauled and certified landing gear from an exchange pool maintained by Boeing, with stocked components and supporting parts shipping within 24 hours.
• Emirates signed an agreement to use Optimized Maintenance Program (OMP) for a fleet of 150 777-300ER (Extended Range), 777-200LR and 777-300 aircraft, representing the largest 777 fleet in the world with an OMP. OMP, a Boeing AnalytX-powered product, delivers tremendous value by providing customized maintenance programs.
• EVA Airways signed an agreement for a number of key products including Component Services for its 787 fleet, and quick engine change solutions. With Component Services, Boeing and its partners own, manage, and maintain a global exchange pool inventory for convenient access.
