For MRO Shops
AeroVision for MRO Shops
Why maintenance, repair, and overhaul facilities choose AeroVision for documentation automation.
MRO shops live and die by turnaround time. Every hour a component sits on the bench is revenue lost. And a massive chunk of that time isn't spent on actual maintenance — it's spent on paperwork.
AeroVision changes that equation.
The Documentation Problem
Today's MRO documentation workflow:
- Mechanic performs inspection or repair
- Mechanic writes notes (on paper or into a separate system)
- Mechanic manually fills FAA 8130-3 — 30-45 minutes
- Mechanic fills Form 337 if major repair — 20-30 minutes
- Quality inspector reviews handwritten/typed notes against the forms
- Errors found → forms rewritten
- Final sign-off → part released
Total documentation time: ~2 hours per component.
And that's assuming no errors. In practice, 15-20% of forms have errors that require rework. Those errors compound: delayed releases, backed-up queues, missed delivery windows.
The AeroVision Workflow
- Mechanic puts on glasses and does the job — no extra steps
- Glasses observe the work: part numbers, measurements, findings
- AI populates 8130-3, 337, and 8010-4 in 3.5 seconds
- Mechanic reviews pre-filled forms on screen
- Mechanic signs → part released
Total documentation time: ~30 minutes (review only).
Key Benefits for MROs
Faster Turnaround
- 70% reduction in documentation time
- Components move through the shop faster
- More jobs completed per week with the same workforce
Fewer Errors
- AI pulls data from direct observations, not memory
- Measurement values are validated against CMM specs in real-time
- Part numbers come from QR scans, not manual typing
- Source badges let reviewers verify every data point
Preserved Expertise
- Tribal knowledge is captured automatically
- When your best mechanic retires, their insights stay in the system
- New hires benefit from decades of accumulated expertise
Complete Provenance
- Every lifecycle event is tamper-evident (SHA-256 hashed)
- No more provenance gaps
- Full traceability from manufacture through return to service
- Anomaly detection flags suspicious patterns automatically
Regulatory Confidence
- Every form field links back to its source evidence
- Audit trail records who did what, when, and why
- CMM references are captured automatically
- Defect reporting (8010-4) is auto-triggered when findings warrant it
