Acumen Aviation has announced that SMBC Aero Engine Lease (SAEL) has chosen Acumen’s SPARTA Records Dataroom, a centralised secure online Records Management System (RMS) for digitised aircraft engine records storage, retrieval, and collaboration to support its extensive engine portfolio and future growth requirements and is the launch customer for SPARTA’s new Continued Airworthiness Management Module (CMM).
SAEL selected SPARTA’s project management technical module, together with its RMS, as an exclusive single platform to plan, execute and schedule fleet-wide inspection programs, manage open item lists, inspections, re-delivery, shop visit reports, and securely file and store digitised records combined with SPARTA’s continued airworthiness management module (CMM), which includes track and trace features for AD’s and SB’s and customised asset configuration.
Acumen was able to easily interpret and understand the requirements through its depth of domain knowledge and was therefore equipped to deliver well executed tailored solutions to SAEL, made faster by SPARTA’s open source, new age technology architecture, and an experienced product development team. SPARTA is a cloud-based integrated platform designed, based on an in-depth understanding of aircraft asset management, to provide clients with a seamless, connected, and intuitive way of organising and controlling a vast array of data spanning the complete life cycle of multiple assets.
Commenting on the announcement, the Chief Technical Officer – Digital at Acumen, Ameya Gore said, “It is our pleasure and honour to onboard SAEL as an esteemed customer on the SPARTA platform. SAEL is an established market player and their trust in the SPARTA platform is a fruitful outcome of all the effort we have invested in it. We remain confident as well as committed to exceeding their expectations and delivering SAEL with successful outcomes time after time.”
Also commenting was the Senior Vice President – Asset Management at SMBC Aero Engine Lease, Majeed Akhtar said, “SMBC Aero Engines Limited is an industry-leading aircraft engine lessor. We selected the SPARTA platform, and we will benefit from the efficiency improvements it will bring to our day-to-day engine leasing activities. This will be further complimented by the ability to tailor the platform to match our precise requirements and ever-expanding portfolio of both narrow-body and wide-body engines. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship in the coming years.”
