FULL RANGE OF CAPABILITIES Industry leaders select Austin based on their experience, resources, and in-depth understanding of aircraft maintenance and support functions. Since the birth of aviation, Austin has been an innovator in the design, engineering, and construction of MRO facilities. From new greenfield projects to major renovations and expansions, Austin has the team to do the job.

Austin understands the unique features of each operation and the varying function-specific areas and specialized equipment needed to meet a specified level of work. From major projects designed to increase capacity and improve efficiency to minor renovations, such as upgrading facilities for newer technology, Austin offers the best team for your specific project.

PLANNING IS MISSION CRITICAL Understanding current and future maintenance requirements are crucial to ensuring your project’s success. That’s why Austin conducts an extensive planning session at the onset of each project to thoroughly understand each component of the maintenance operations before design begins.

Using benchmarks and detailed checklists customized for each facility type or maintenance operation, Austin’s facilities planning team evaluates every operation component, from work docks and fleet sizes to building features, systems, and equipment. Then, cost-benefit analyses are performed for each recommended solution to help select the right fit.

By thoroughly analyzing maintenance operations, Austin can determine the most appropriate and cost-efficient components for your specific requirements.

Understanding how your facility operates and implementing appropriate designs will optimize maintenance operations, reduce costs, maximize throughput, and improve your bottom line.
