In the dynamic and highly regulated world of aviation maintenance, quoting repair work swiftly and accurately is no longer a competitive edge—it’s a necessity. Delays
Aviation Inventory & Parts Management for Maintenance Teams
From receipt to work order to cost, one platform for parts control.
Whether you are an MRO Part 145 repair station or an in-house maintenance team, maintaining inventory accuracy is crucial for ensuring readiness and controlling costs. Generic tools often overlook the specific needs of aviation, including important factors like traceability, alternates, serviceability conditions, certificates, shelf life, and hazardous materials.
Power Aero Suites offers a comprehensive inventory and parts management solution tailored for aircraft maintenance. It integrates seamlessly with work orders, procurement, engineering records, and finance, ensuring that every movement is traceable and that all costs are accurately assigned.

Feature Highlights
- Core fields: PN/MPN, description, UOM, ATA chapter, alternates/superseded numbers.
- Condition codes: NE / NS / SV / OH / AR / CORE as standard.
- Controls: flags for shelf-life and hazardous materials; optional rotable pools.
- Approved alternates: planner-visible with policies, so substitutes are controlled and auditable.
- Serialized components: capture serials with linked documents (e.g., 8130-3, EASA Form 1, teardown/repair reports).
- Consumables: lot/batch + manufacture/expiry; block or warn at issue when expired (per configuration).
- Trace chain: when issued to a WO, serial/lot ties to the task and asset for end-to-end traceability (no “back-to-birth” promises).
- Network aware: manage hangars, shops, and line stations; define bins/shelves per site.
- Transfers: inter-site moves with carrier/tracking; maintain full audit trail.
- Planning: min/max at the location level to drive replenishment.
- Counts: full physicals or cycle counts; approved variances post to the right GL accounts.
- Reservations: hold stock from the master or directly inside the WO to prevent double-commit.
- Kitting: heavy-check/mod kits reduce each child at pick while preserving trace.
- Assemblies: define parent/subcomponents; disassembly returns children to discrete stock lines with original documents.
- Receive against PO/RO; attach packing slips and certificates.
- Receiving inspection & quarantine for non-conformance.
- Shelf-life: capture mfg/expiry; alerts for upcoming expirations; optional block at issue.
- Controlled adjustments (scrap, obsolescence, count correction) with approvals and GL posting.
- Reconciliation views compare expected vs. counted; highlight variances for follow-up.
- Stock Aging (by PN/MPN and condition) to spot slow movers.
- Turns & Fill Rate to balance capital vs. readiness.
- Shelf-Life Expirations by warehouse.
- Obsolescence & Scrap tracking.
- Rotable Utilization (cycles/hours, repair status).
- Filter by warehouse, condition, ATA, vendor; export or connect to BI.
- Procurement: POs/ROs flow to receiving; costs accrue and move to AP on invoice.
- Work Orders: issues post to WIP/COGS or internal projects per job type; returns/scrap reverse correctly.
- Engineering & Technical Records: publications/cert docs stay attached to stock lines and follow components into WOs.
- Accounting: inventory valuation and movements align with the GL for faster close and cleaner audits.
