Why is it vital to have a "single source of truth" in the realm of aircraft maintenance? The use of this centralised data source leads to enhanced safety through proactive maintenance and a reduced risk of unexpected failures. Furthermore, it streamlines workflows, minimises errors, and results in significant cost efficiencies.

Migration of an airline’s fleet airworthiness & maintenance data is not something that happens daily. Typically, it becomes relevant when the airline’s maintenance & engineering department selects to implement a new MRO/M&E software system to manage its fleet. However, the way HOW the data migration is performed as part of the MRO/M&E software system implementation is of great significance and will have a long-lasting effect in the years to come.

Before talking about the state of your data, let’s first get quickly into what is the meaning of data quality and data integrity.

Data quality refers to the overall level of excellence and trustworthiness of data. It is the measure of how well data meets the needs of its intended users and the degree to which it is fit for its intended purpose. Factors that contribute to data quality include accuracy, completeness, consistency, timeliness, and relevance.

The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) defines data quality as Accuracy, Resolution, and Integrity.

MRO /M&E ERP software is a crucial tool in the management of aircraft airworthiness. Airworthiness, in the context of aviation, refers to the state of an aircraft being fit and safe to fly. Ensuring airworthiness is the responsibility of the aircraft owner or operator, and it involves various tasks, including regular inspections, repairs, and maintenance.
