Air Works is a leading diversified aviation services provider with presence in 4 continents across the globe Founded in 1951, Air Works provides engineering, asset management and safety and technology solutions to the commercial and business aviation communities. We are service providers to global aircraft leasing companies and airlines, first-line service providers to leading OEMs, 1 of only 7 IATA certified safety auditors, a global market leader for charter safety ratings, and the largest independent MRO provider in India. Our experience in the Indian market, impeccable credibility in the industry, established infrastructure and a strong management team have enabled us to expand globally, both organically and inorganically. While our service offerings are well diversified, each of our businesses is bound by an underlying strategy. We operate as a well-knit “federation” of complementary businesses that are run independently by the incumbent entrepreneurs and management team while simultaneously governed by a set of common business principles. We believe that this structure best addresses the needs of our customers at a local level while creating value and differentiation for Air Works as a globally run business. This structure brings together the added benefit of a larger pool of management resources, access to potential new customers through well-networked colleagues in other regions as well as access to funding for new projects and development of business in as yet untapped markets.
