WinAir releases updates to its aircraft maintenance software

This software release is the most significant software update for the company since it introduced its web browser-based aviation management software, WinAir Version 7, in 2016. Many of the new software enhancements in this update were WinAir user feature requests, recently demoed at the company’s Virtual WinAir User Summit. These software additions, which include an advancement in scheduling triggers, a new warranties feature, and new bin management functionality, are designed to take efficiency to the next level.

With the latest advancement in WinAir's scheduling triggers, businesses can automatically trigger other tasks, such as a torque-check, after a component is installed on an aircraft. Users have the power to define a list of triggering components and positions for each task. When a part is installed on one of those positions, it will instantly schedule the required task. If a triggered task is already scheduled, then an override schedule will be created instead. This enhanced WinAir Version 7 feature will save aviation operations and MROs significant time, as it will accelerate maintenance work steps, make processes more robust, and assist businesses with maintaining compliance.

“We are thrilled to be unveiling a variety of new features and functions for improving operational performance in our upcoming WinAir Version 7.2 software release,” says Kyle Vergeer, WinAir Managing Director. “Providing our users with the tools that they require to accommodate for change management in their maintenance program is a key element to this software update. These enhancements to our aviation management software solidify WinAir as the top solution for managing aircraft maintenance and ensuring compliance.”

New features include template revisions and custom approvals

In addition to these items, WinAir has included other system enhancements in this software update, such as:

• A newfound parts feature, which makes it easy to add found parts back into the system and maintain compliance.
• A template revisions feature, which provides users with the ability to make changes to an aircraft template and submit them through a fully customizable approval process.
• A custom revision approval feature, which offers businesses the capacity and flexibility to define a custom approval process for task revisions with as many approval stages as required.

With the release of WinAir Version 7.2, the company has demonstrated that it continues to improve and enhance its software to assist its clients in achieving business success. This latest edition of WinAir’s software is available in an Operator Package, a Heliops Package, an MRO Package, and a CAMO Package. The company also offers all-inclusive, custom, and full-turnkey solutions.

After concluding a seamless product implementation this past January using entirely remote processes and procedures, including completing a data migration, inventory import, and user training, maintenance, repair, overhaul,  Advance Aerospace is now using the software daily to track and manage maintenance and maintain inventory control.
