This briefing is based upon ongoing PMA analysis. The report provides an insight into the dynamics guiding this market, and includes market challenges, drivers, restraints and avenues of opportunity for growth. The purpose of this research is to gain a deeper understanding of PMA and its market revenue value.
This briefing will benefit airline end-users, whether actively pursuing an alternative materials-sourcing strategy or not, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), PMA suppliers, Maintenance Repair and Overhaul (MRO) organisations, as well as national and regional aviation regulatory authorities with a keen interest in this market.
"OEMs have been relying on aftermarket support to offset their declining revenues from new product sales. This has resulted in significant year-on-year price increases for original spare parts, hence driving material expenditure for airline end-users. Nonetheless the emergence of alternative aftermarket solutions, such as PMA parts, has provided airlines with an important cost-saving tool. Their popularity has grown substantially over the last 10 years and PMA parts are now a viable option for a greater number of end-users," observes Diogenis Papiomytis, Commercial Aviation Analyst for Frost & Sullivan's Aerospace & Defence group.
Frost & Sullivan will hold this conference call at 15.00 BST on Thursday 19 April 2007, which will provide industry participants with an outlook on the PMA market.
