Bangalore: Leading aviation services provider Air Works India Engineering Ltd. will supply spare parts and components to civil aircraft maker Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, a company official said Thursday.
As a third party MRO (maintenance, repair and overhaul) player, Air Works will also provide warehousing, custom clearance and delivery to Gulfstream customers from its warehouse adjacent to the Bangalore international airport at Devanahalli, about 40km from the city centre.
"By having inventory in India, we can expedite delivery of spares to domestic and in-transit customers, saving hours or even days," Gulfstream vice-president Derek Zimmerman said in a statement here.
The value of inventory is estimated to be $15 million in this calendar year.
