Critical Response Services (CRS) can be defined as any situation where, regardless of everything else happening, immediate action is required. Generally the most common form of CRS is an Aircraft on Ground (AOG) situation. As soon as a CRS situation occurs our priority becomes to rectify the problem immediately. We have implemented several call to action services to ensure this is done:

Direct point of contact system This means that even during holiday times (like Christmas etc.) when the office is not occupied, we have personnel that can be contacted anytime to ensure that the request/situation is known and can be dealt with immediately.

Mobile Repair Teams We can supply additional personnel to help fix the problem. Also spare parts that do not exceed a certain size can with be hand carried on to aircraft to shorten delivery times.

International Secure Air Freight/Known Consignor under EU regulation 185/2010 This means we can move airfreight from A to B avoiding all customs and therefore saving valuable time with the authorities.

Freight forwarders & Company Services We work with international Freight Forwarders that understand the “time is everything, regardless of cost” and we also have our own company vehicles and dedicated personnel that are available. Spare Parts Inventory
