Pratt & Whitney Adds New Maintenance Providers

Pratt & Whitney will expand its global network by adding SR Technics as a maintenance service provider for its GTF engines. The Zurich-based facility will serve PW1100G-JM engines for the ACJ 320neo with full disassembly, assembly, and test capability. As demand for the A320neo series continues to increase, the expansion will help Pratt & Whitney ensure sufficient maintenance service supply around the globe.

Marc Meredith, executive director of GTF Engine Aftermarket at Pratt & Whitney said “With increasing engine orders, we continue to grow our MRO presence with capable, quality maintenance providers worldwide to ensure proximity and seamless service to our customers.”

Jean-Marc Lenz, CEO at SR Technics said “This is a major cornerstone in our company development in line with our SR Technics strategy to extend our capabilities by providing maintenance, repair, and overhaul services for the GTF engine at our facilities in Zurich. By adding the PW1100G-JM engine we are not only broadening our product portfolio, but we are also expanding our highly skilled workforce and footprint in Switzerland.”

According to Asian Sky Media’s Business Jet Fleet Report 2020, 25% of engines in the Asia-Pacific region are built by Pratt & Whitney, making it the second most popular OEM in the region.
