ExpressJet became the first airline to join the new Embraer Collective Inventory Planning (ECIP) program, in an effort to better manage its spare parts inventory for its fleet of 240 regional jets. Supported by its AeroChain Web portal, ECIP monitors parts usage and guarantees automatic stock replenishment.  Embraer’s U.S. support subsidiary, EACS, manages the program.
