Aeroxchange
A strong supply chain is one of the cornerstones of the aviation industry. When operators and the suppliers who support them can both improve efficiency and reduce wasteful, redundant tasks, they collectively become stronger, more reliable, and more profitable. Aeroxchange’s suite of MRO collaboration platforms allow companies to automate manual, redundant tasks by facilitating the electronic communication of information between 100% of trading partners. Regardless of the technical sophistication of the company, Aeroxchange can facilitate collaboration on MRO Task Cards, Purchase Orders, Repair Orders, Pooling Programs, Consignment/VMI programs, and AOG events all with automated invoicing. Aeroxchange’s platforms support Continuous Improvement processes and by keeping data updated, invoices can be processed automatically with less exceptions and faster payment. Aeroxchange was founded in July 2000 by a consortium of 13 major global airlines. The founding airlines envisioned a neutral exchange platform to support internet-based electronic supply chain communications between airlines, their partners and suppliers. Aeroxchange was created to function as a market hub, acting as a single point of connection for all participants. In this capacity, Aeroxchange vastly simplifies participation for everyone. Aeroxchange "translates" the electronic business documents from one trading partner into a format acceptable to the receiving party. Aeroxchange also maintains a common system of record with transaction time stamping for market operations. Security and encryption established once with Aeroxchange enables secure communications between all parties.
