United States MRO Service Provider
The client is an aerospace MRO service provider currently focused on APUs and related products. To accelerate growth, the client was interested in exploring entering the commercial aircraft component MRO market, with a particular focus on those services adjacent or complementary to existing capabilities. Utilizing the existing global fleet and MRO forecast developed annually by Oliver Wyman CAVOK, the project activity focused on a market sizing and growth strategy analysis along with key considerations for a path forward.

Parameters included: PMA/DER opportunity, OEM strength, OEM horizontal capabilities, adjacency to current capabilities, past sourcing competitiveness, number of parts in a chapter, chapter fragmentation. Deep dives for the top 5 ATA chapters based on whitespace scoring including analysis of competitors and cost/complexity around market entry.
