Getting started with Maintenance Planning

The Maintenance Planning module helps you plan, track, and manage all maintenance activities. Use it to maintain aircraft status, stay compliant, and ensure work is carried out on time.

What you can do in Maintenance Planning

Maintenance Planning gives you a structured overview of your aircraft and maintenance requirements.

You can:

  • Manage aircraft and aircraft models

  • Plan scheduled maintenance

  • Create and manage work orders

  • Track defects and components

  • Maintain complete maintenance records


Key areas in Maintenance Planning

Maintenance Planning is divided into pages that support your workflow:

  • Aircraft – Manage your fleet and aircraft status

  • Aircraft Models – Define shared configurations and structures

  • Model Statistics – View aggregated data across aircraft models

  • Maintenance Schedules – Define recurring maintenance tasks

  • Work Packages – Group related maintenance tasks

  • Work Orders – Plan and track individual maintenance jobs

  • Defects – Log and track issues that require attention

  • Components – Track installed components and their status


Using the Maintenance Planning dashboard

The dashboard gives you a high-level overview of your maintenance operation.

Use it to:

  • Identify upcoming or overdue maintenance

  • Monitor aircraft status

  • Get visibility into planned and ongoing work

Start here to understand what needs attention before planning or executing work.


How Maintenance Planning fits your workflow

Maintenance Planning connects your entire operation:

  • Aircraft usage and status drive maintenance needs

  • Work orders define what needs to be done

  • Inventory provides the required parts

  • Production executes the work

This ensures that planning, parts, and execution stay aligned.


A typical workflow

A normal maintenance planning workflow might look like this:

1. Create or update aircraft and maintenance schedules
2. Identify upcoming or due maintenance
3. Create a work order or work package
4. Reserve required parts from Inventory
5. Execute the work in Production
6. Update records and maintain compliance

Tips

  • Keep aircraft data and schedules up to date

  • Plan work ahead to avoid downtime

  • Link work orders to the correct aircraft and components

  • Use structured records to stay audit-ready
