Russian MRO Jet Flight Service (JFS) has signed a services agreement with EmbraerX for its Beacon digital maintenance coordination platform. Using Beacon, JFS looks to streamline maintenance cases, reduce out-of-service time, eliminate redundant communications, and leverage data to improve the operation.

“Beacon is easy to use and adopt as it does not replace any systems for us,” said JFS general director Kirill Trushkovskiy. “First, it is a communication solution and second, it is a machine learning engine that builds knowledge bases for the technicians of the future. You can't find that combination anywhere else.”

Certified by EASA and the Russian Federal Agency for Air Transport, JFS has been in business since 2002. The Moscow-based company services a variety of aircraft including Embraer Legacy 450/500/600/650s, Praetor 500/600s, Gulfstream G450s and G550s, and Boeing BBJs. It also has base maintenance operations at Al Maktoum International Airport in Dubai and Riga that provide service for the range of Bombardier Challengers and most Globals.
