Commsoft, a world leader in aviation engineering and maintenance systems, has announced that it has added the Nigerian airline, Arik Air, to its growing list of OASES users in a five year, 30 concurrent users deal.

The airline will be using OASES to support the development of its internal CAMO capabilities and is likely to appoint an OASES-experienced third party contractor as an implementation partner to assist with training and other aspects of process development.

The initial focus will be on Arik Air’s two Airbus A330-200s, but this will be expanded to incorporate the rest of the airline’s fleet, including Boeing 737-800s and 737-700s, and Bombardier CRJ-900s and Dash 8 Q400s.

Arik Air also has ambitious plans to expand its fleet further with a number of new generation aircraft. OASES, designed to combine ease of use with a technical sophistication that allows for the full integration of all maintenance and engineering functions, is structured in a modular format.

Arik Air has selected the Core, Airworthiness, Planning, Production, Materials and Warranty modules which will run on a standalone dual server platform.
