ANA to Use Boeing Optimized Maintenance Program

All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Boeing have teamed up to implement operational changes aimed at reducing costs and increasing efficiency of maintenance operations for ANA’s current and future B777 models as part of the Boeing Optimized Maintenance Program (OMP) service.

“The efficient performance of our 777 and 777X fleet together with Optimized Maintenance Program will be value added to our operations,” said Takeo Kikuchi, Director of Engineering, ANA. “We were very pleased with Boeing’s offer of services to center on cost reductions in our 777 fleet maintenance operations, and we look forward to working with the Boeing teams to achieve these improvements.”

ANA recently finalized orders for twenty Boeing 777-9Xs and six Boeing 777-300ER airplanes.

By evaluating and analyzing a maintenance program, including logbooks, scheduled maintenance data, component maintenance records and other metrics, Boeing develops recommendations for maintenance program enhancements customized to accommodate the unique operating environments and specific operational goals of the airline.

Boeing technical consultants also work directly with local regulatory authorities to secure approval and agreement on any recommended maintenance program changes.
