Data-Driven Support of Engineers for an Accelerated MRO Process

Using machine learning to automate defect evaluation, exploit expert knowledge and suggest repair actions.

Starting Point

Access to analog repair manuals and previous, documented expert decisions.

Objective

Accelerated and less error-prone assessments as well as suggested repair actions.

Added Value​

Data-Driven assistance system for human-in-the-loop usage and a streamlined process.

From challenges to solutions

A slow Procedure

Maintaining, updating, and inspecting analog repair specification manuals is slow, cumbersome, and interrupts the inspection process.

Data Inconsistencies

Understanding previous expert decisions is hindered due to the individuality of engineers and different quality of decision justification.

Technology Skepticism

Data-driven solutions are oftentimes intransparent and hard to interpret, which increases rejection and complicates the rollout of new products.

Automation for fast Updates

Let the AI assistant take care of updating and interacting with your digitalized repair specification manuals. New, established repair specifications are automatically added and manuals versioned.

Streamlining the Inspection Process

Let the AI assistant understand and generalize previous expert decisions. Engineers are guided in upcoming assessments using a human-in-the-loop perspective to foster documentation and data.

Transparency of Decision-Making

Let your engineers remain in control using a feedback-based AI assistant. Dashboards and compact explanations reveal the decision-making process of models, thereby strengthen trust.
