StandardAero all set to integrate Signature Aviation Services to emerge as smart, strong and better MRO

Having a multi-disciplinary IMO is very important and using a disciplined, evidence-based approach ensures that there are adequate change management processes.
StandardAero’s overall goal is to blend the best practices from both of our companies and emerge as a smarter, stronger and better collective team.

IMO and functional teams are making substantial progress integrating the company’s domestic sales team while making multiple investments and organizational changes.

12 October 2021: StandardAero has been rapidly integrating its acquisition of Signature Aviation Engine Repair and Overhaul of global engine services to serve their growing business aviation customer demands. Before the acquisition of Signature Aerospace, StandardAero had already established an Integration Management Office (IMO) and appointed a dedicated leader and team to drive various work streams and action plans. 

Tony Brancato, President of StandardAero Business Aviation said, “In addition to forming a dedicated IMO, we utilized processes and lessons learned from our prior acquisition of Vector Aerospace several years ago. We have learned that having a multi-disciplinary IMO is very important and using a disciplined, evidence-based approach ensures that there are adequate change management processes.  Our overall goal is to blend the best practices from both of our companies and emerge as a smarter, stronger and better collective team.”

Thus far, the IMO and functional teams are making substantial progress integrating the company’s domestic sales team while making multiple investments and organizational changes in StandardAero’s Mobile Services Teams.

Brancato further added, “Our merger immediately expands StandardAero’s ability to provide the best support for customers and places our company in a position to be one of the most cost-effective and client-focused MRO companies in the world.  We are working closely with our customers and reviewing our progress with the StandardAero Customer Advisory Board, an independent voluntary board made up of a cross section of twelve business aviation flight department leaders and operators.  And finally, our combined workforce of highly skilled and long-tenured technicians and experienced aerospace professionals is continuing to fuel our collective passion for outstanding customer service.”

StandardAero’s theme at the 2021 NBAA-BACE event is “Growing to Serve You Better.”  The company’s combined sales team will be attending the show and staffing a unified exhibit and business centre for hosting and meeting with customers.
