Overview

Airline engineering and technical operations departments typically manage formal aircraft maintenance programs for all of the fleets they operate. The duties of these groups involve such activities as:

• Assuring and being able to demonstrate that all maintenance requirements are being met by the maintenance program
• Creating, revising, and managing task cards
• Managing conflicts that arise because of changes to source documents such as the AMM and OEM revisions
• Grouping work tasks into logical packages
• Publishing task cards and other data for use by end users and external systems

TechSight/X Technical Operations and Engineering Edition provides an airline’s engineering and technical operations groups with a fully digital environment for technical data management, revision, approval, and publishing.

TechSight/X Technical Operation Edition facilitates technical operations and engineering management by providing these main functions:

• Tasks and job cards
• Maintenance program tasks: Create, edit, search, and report on tasks to establish and maintain the approved maintenance program. Program specialists work in an intuitive, browser-based environment.
• Job cards: Create, edit, and search job cards used to perform routine maintenance. Reuse content from manuals and other work cards to eliminate duplication and increase efficiency.
• Engineering projects
• Job cards for engineering modifications: Create collections of engineering job cards for accomplishing required inspections and modifications using intuitive web forms.
• ATA SGML SBs: Convert ATA SGML SB work sections into job cards to eliminate rekeying of instructional content
• Job cards and visits
• Maintenance visit management:
• Import maintenance visit requirements from existing scheduling systems

• Integrated materials management information: Interface with existing materials management systems to include real-time part and stock information in displayed job card content
• Management of maintenance programs
• Management of maintenance requirements
• Authoring task cards, EOs, and EAs
