The challenge

Delta TechOps manages a massive inventory of new and overhauled aircraft parts, and estimating costs for maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) operations is incredibly complex. Each jet engine involves tens of thousands of parts, and engineers and analysts were relying on a cumbersome prototype that couldn’t handle the scale or intricacy of the calculations. What should have been an automated process still required weeks of manual work, slowing decision-making and limiting the team’s ability to compare alternative scenarios or optimize costs effectively.

At Delta, we’re thoroughly pleased with it. More than pleased, because of the quality of 7Factor work, their partnership, and the product provided. Everyone who has touched this tool has been grateful for it.
