Jet Aviation Basel have announced the expansion, restructuring and refurbishment of its engine, wheel and non-destructive-testing (NDT) shops in its Basel, Switzerland facility.
All three shops were doubled in size, reorganized and outfitted with new materials and equipment. The expansion and refurbishment further includes new storage rooms, a meeting room, office space and a library.
A new in-house water purification system has also been installed to recycle water from wheel and NDT activities.
Arjen Boone, senior director of MRO supply chain management and support operations at Jet Aviation Basel, said: “Along with the restructuring of the shops, we developed and introduced new work processes.”
“The shops are now better coordinated to help improve efficiency, meet our strategic business objectives and ultimately enhance customer focus and service quality. This is one of many initiatives that has been undertaken to ensure we continue providing our clients the best support possible.”
Johannes Turzer, vice president and general manager of the maintenance center at Jet Aviation Basel, added: “These changes have directly improved our production capacity to enable us to respond to increasing demand and better meet the needs of our valued customers.
“This investment demonstrates our commitment to the highest quality standards and the ongoing improvement of our services.”
