Wisconsin-based software developer Aloft Evermōr officially launched its Maintenance Manager platform ahead of the Citation Jet Pilots (CJP) conference this week in San Antonio, Texas. With a soft release early last month, the tool was designed to streamline the planning and management of scheduled aircraft maintenance for Cessna Citation operators.
According to its developers, Maintenance Manager is compatible with existing maintenance tracking programs and focuses on the decision-making process around “when and how to accomplish required tasks.”
The program organizes and optimizes upcoming maintenance projects by lowest cost and least downtime, and makes it easy to request and compare quotes from multiple service providers, as well as lock in shops and dates with the click of a button. Once the work is completed, the software will review the paperwork, including invoices, to check for errors and duplicate charges.
“Maintenance tracking software programs tell you what is due,” said company founder Mark Melby, adding that the software is a practical tool designed for operations that may not have dedicated maintenance staff. “Maintenance Manager helps owners and operators decide when and how to complete that work most efficiently.”
