Aircraft Inventory Management

 

AvPro™ offers a powerful barcode-based Parts Inventory Module designed for full traceability and efficient handling of FAA/EASA Certification documents. Streamline your inventory management by utilizing barcodes and scanners to track movement of inventory from vendor orders to stock work orders, ensuring accuracy for any airframe or part repair. Experience enhanced efficiency and compliance with AvPro™.

Our Aircraft Inventory module is designed to streamline the management of serialized aircraft parts. Maintenance teams can effortlessly track the movement and placement of inventory items by their unique serial numbers during FAA maintenance procedures. By leveraging barcode technology, each item is tagged with essential details like item description, serial number, Lot#, and expiration date. This innovative approach not only eliminates the need for manual record-keeping but also reduces transcription errors, making inventory management simpler, more accurate, and significantly less time-consuming.

How Does Aircraft Inventory Management Ensure Compliance and Efficiency?

 

Managing aircraft parts requires accuracy, traceability, and compliance with strict FAA/EASA regulations. Manual record-keeping can slow down operations and introduce costly errors. This is where AvPro steps in. By integrating barcode-based processes and robust features, its aircraft inventory management solution helps MROs, airlines, repair stations, and flight departments handle parts with full transparency from vendor orders to final usage.

 

With AvPro, maintenance teams can track serialized parts, lot numbers, and expiration dates in real time. Each item carries essential details—description, serial number, documentation, and certifications—ensuring nothing gets lost in translation. Instead of spending hours on spreadsheets or searching through paper files, technicians can rely on digital traceability to maintain compliance and streamline workflows.

 

Why Aircraft Inventory Software Is the Backbone of Aviation Operations

 

Modern aviation requires more than just organized storage—it demands a system that connects purchasing, shipping, receiving, and compliance in one place. AvPro’s aircraft inventory software achieves this by combining robust tools with user-friendly processes:

 

  1. Barcode-driven accuracy – Inventory moves seamlessly from purchase order to work order, minimizing transcription errors.

  2. Document management – Certificates, FAA Form 8130s, and MSDS documents can be attached directly to part numbers or serial numbers for easy access during audits.

  3. Comprehensive control – From RFQs and repair orders to vendor/customer core exchanges, the system covers every part of the supply chain.

  4. Tool calibration tracking – Manage tool calibration schedules and generate repair orders or packing slips with ease.

 

This aviation inventory management software also simplifies physical stock checks. Teams can generate barcode-based count sheets, set reorder alerts, and manage multiple warehouses by bin locations. With customizable units of measure, detailed reporting, and the ability to track rotables, consumables, and serialized items, operations of any scale—from small flight departments to large airline MROs—can benefit.

 

Features That Support Regulatory Compliance

 

Compliance in aviation isn’t optional—it’s essential. AvPro ensures maintenance teams remain audit-ready with features that directly align with FAA/EASA standards:

 

  1. Automated FAA 8130 and EASA forms generation

  2. Certificate attachments for received parts

  3. Lot and shelf-life tracking with expiration alerts

  4. Complete audit history of each serialized part from purchase through usage

  5. Hazardous materials and MSDS tracking

 

By embedding compliance into daily workflows, AvPro reduces the risk of oversight while giving organizations confidence during inspections.

 

A Scalable Solution for Every Operation

 

One of AvPro’s strengths lies in its flexibility. Smaller flight departments may only need the inventory module, while larger repair stations or airlines can expand into work orders, component maintenance, and integrated accounting. The system is scalable, allowing organizations to adopt modules as they grow.

Deployment options add to this adaptability. Whether cloud-based for easy access or on-premise for greater control, AvPro fits the unique requirements of different aviation operations.

 

Smarter Purchasing and Vendor Management

 

AvPro also improves how teams handle purchasing and vendor relations. The system includes:

 

  1. A PO shopping cart that generates purchase orders quickly across multiple suppliers.

  2. Integrated RFQ and pricing request management with email tracking.

  3. Vendor invoice scanning and archival for easy reference.

  4. Linked purchase orders that tie directly to work orders and sales orders.

 

By connecting procurement with operations, organizations reduce delays, control costs, and ensure the right parts are available when needed.
