Avioserv Continues Investing in Component Control to
Manage Its Global Aviation Business
AP&M EXPO EUROPE, LONDON, UK, May 2nd, 2012 – Component Control announced today that
long-term customer Avioserv San Diego, Inc., a global provider of aftermarket aircraft engine parts and
lease engines, continues to grow its state-of-the-art IT infrastructure by moving to Quantum’s Max-Q
Oracle TM database. Since 2004, Avioserv has leveraged the Quantum Control TM software to manage its
high-volume parts, sales and leasing business. Avioserv was also an important collaborator in the
development of Component Control’s first-generation leasing module. Avioserv has more than 40,000
square feet of warehouse in San Diego, CA, and manages more than 63,000 line items of engine parts.
“We’ve seen the use of Quantum explode over the years so that it is now viewed as the industry
standard,” comments Jennifer Bowman, Executive Vice President of Finance at Avioserv. “Since the
majority of our trading partners are using the same software it’s become easier to do business with the
supply chain and our customers because of the accuracy of engine and parts data and overall gain in
efficiencies.”
Avioserv was one of the first aviation companies to use inventory bar coding in 2004 and since then the
company has leveraged bar coding and trace document imaging to enhance its inventory management
and quoting processes.
Bowman continued, “While we’ve come to rely on Quantum for its stability and reliability, the migration to
Quantum’s Max-Q Oracle TM database will serve to increase system scalability, security, speed and
performance. These capabilities will be significant as we continue to focus on LEAN principles to grow
our global business.”
Quantum Control TM is a fully integrated business software solution, developed specifically for MRO and
logistics organisations. Its unique features promote best practice and improve business processes with
one integrated solution running on one database. Quantum Control's personalized configuration settings
provide individual users with an intuitive interface which improves the bottom line through optimized
productivity. As a powerful, affordable and scaleable solution, Quantum Control TM extends the supply
chain using its built-in web services with Oracle API toolsets.
