challenge

Web system for forecasting and scheduling

The client was seeking to design and build a solution which would help optimize the preventive maintenance being performed on the jet engines to cut down the costs associated without compromising on the engine reliability. The argument on the optimization was based on the availability of information about the engines from 3rd party services. The challenge was to arrive at a set of rules that facilitates proactive monitoring of engine health and performance to quickly address any issues or questions. The rules were supposed to be derived from workshops organised together with the clients expert personnel specialising in the maintenance planning.

As a result, the client should be able to save several million dollars every year by automating the scheduling process for performing the maintenance.

scope
collaboration
A series of Skype workshop meetings were performed where client jet maintenance experts meet with our consultants. Throughout several meetings, we have identified several key metrics and managed to establish a hypothesis on how to combine them and create required predictive maintenance indicators. Those were then used to design an architecture which would support the hypothesis and gave the right tools in hands of the planning managers.
process
The project was divided into several phases each one consisting with a set of clearly defined goals and acceptance criteria. Those phases were later used to build up the project backlog and individual sprint backlogs.
scope
Percival was supposed to become a prognostics web solution for analysing jet engines diagnostic and forecasting services needed. The platform was aimed to schedule when a repair should occur and provides basic information about any engine available on the market, latest repair, life cycles and usages.

Proactive monitoring of engine health and performance

We developed it for the US-based company BBA Aviation plc which is a market-leading provider of global aviation support and aftermarket services. After building forecasting and scheduling functionalities the platform is designed to help users make informed decisions about preventative maintenance and repair. Having the platform web base enables users to achieve fast response times and gives them the ability to resolve customer problems quickly and effectively. This solution puts the BBA Aviation’s engine support teams ahead of the competition.

The Percival facilitates proactive monitoring of engine health and performance to quickly address any issues or questions. Integrated with several 3rd party services and full of intuitive functionalities, the platform supports aircraft reliability while lowering operating costs. Among the main advantages we could point out: *optimization of the maintenance times based on key jet engine performance indicators *easy scheduling and intuitive interface for maintenance planners huge cost savings by *automating the process and including more parameters than it was possible to do in a manual way
