CFM introduces Premier MRO brand
- CBSA licensees become Premier MRO
- CFM reinforces commitment to continued growth and maturity of open MRO ecosystem.
CFM International has reaffirmed its commitment to an open maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) ecosystem for LEAP engines, ensuring that airline customers have access to a broad network of service providers. The comprehensive capabilities available from LEAP MRO providers licensed with a CFM-branded service agreement (CBSA) will now be known as "Premier MRO" providers for CFM LEAP engines.
"Our commitment to an open MRO ecosystem is unwavering," said Gaël Méheust, President and CEO of CFM International. "By introducing the Premier MRO brand, we're giving operators a clear understanding of the extensive capabilities and technical expertise they can expect from these shops." — Gaël Méheust, President and CEO of CFM International
Recent announcements validate the value of the open MRO ecosystem model. In the past few months, Avianca, Corendon Airlines, Guangxi Beibu Gulf Airlines and KM Malta Airlines have selected CFM Premier MRO providers to support LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B fleets. In addition, Akasa Air recently selected ST Engineering for performance restoration shop visits (PRSVs) for LEAP-1B engines.
"As a CFM Premier MRO provider, we're able to deliver tremendous value to LEAP operators," said Lewis Prebble, president of engine services for airlines and fleets at StandardAero. "That's why airlines across continents have selected us for their LEAP engine service needs."
"Since 2017, Lufthansa Technik has been a proud partner of CFM for LEAP engine maintenance," said Dr. Georg Fanta, head of commercial engine services at Lufthansa Technik AG. "We were the first shop worldwide with CBSA licenses for both LEAP-1A and LEAP-1B. 'Premier MRO' emphasizes the value of our license, and the broad spectrum of premium services Lufthansa Technik can offer for LEAP engines."
The open MRO ecosystem for LEAP engines is designed to meet the growing demand for engine maintenance and support. This ecosystem includes CFM's internal network and a diverse range of service providers, including airline shops and independent MROs. All LEAP MRO providers are committed to high-quality maintenance services to support the same high engine residual value seen today on CFM56. This structure ensures that customers have the flexibility to choose the best service options to meet their unique needs – whether specific work scopes, component repair, or full restoration overhauls. There are currently five CFM LEAP Premier MRO shops: Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance, Delta TechOps, Lufthansa Technik, ST Engineering, and StandardAero.
