Stevens Aerospace and Defense Systems’ new Denver, Colorado MRO location has become so busy that the company will shift to a seven-days-a-week work schedule starting in October.
The South Carolina-based maintenance provider announced this past March that it was taking over operations at Centennial Airport (KAPA) from Mayo Aviation and soon realized that the demand for its services outstripped its current capacity, leading it to add more technicians and expand operations through the weekend to reduce downtime.
“Whether for personal or business needs, our customers can now rely on Stevens’ technicians to deliver that high-quality work seven days a week ensuring timely return of their aircraft,” said Keith Semenas, the facility’s general manager.
Driving the increase, the company noted, were critical medical and governmental flight operations, as well as charter and corporate operators in the Rocky Mountain region in need of quality MRO services. The location specializes in maintenance and avionics for business jets and turboprops including Cessna Citations, Hawkers, Learjets, and King Airs.
Aside from KAPA, Stevens operates a network of MRO locations in Nashville, Atlanta, and Greenville, South Carolina, and has a 24/7 mobile AOG division.
