Reducing aircraft downtime thanks to Critical Chain Project Management

Context

 

While being already competitive, ABS Jets wants to further reduce the aircraft downtimes in its Prague's maintenance center for business jets.

 

Approach

  • Critical Chain deployment for a dynamic scheduling of the mechanics' work throughout the maintenance visit.

  • Creation of work packages to group relevent task cards.

  • Daily update of the schedule.

  • Monitoring with the Fever Chart, the main KPI to track project progress.

Results

  • Reduction by 30% of aircraft downtime. A Check C maintenance executed in 4.5 weeks instead of 7 weeks.

  • Elimination of the stressfull work environment.

  • Clarity and stability of the priorities given by the management.

  • Durations garanteed by a "project buffer".
