Honeywell and Lufthansa Technik sign MRO agreement for components in CFM's LEAP series engines

Honeywell and Lufthansa Technik have signed an extensive
collaboration agreement for the maintenance of Honeywell components
installed on CFM International's LEAP series engines which are used
in Airbus A320neo Family, Boeing 737 MAX and COMAC C919 aircraft.

Under this agreement, Lufthansa Technik will develop Maintenance,
Repair and Overhaul (MRO) capabilities for the aforementioned
Honeywell components. By this, the company will be able to offer
improved and OEM-certified aftermarket services, with increased
component reliability and reduced operator life-cycle costs.

"We are excited to further extend our relationship with Honeywell,"
said Dr. Georg Fanta, Vice President of Aircraft Component Services
at Lufthansa Technik. "Our customers will benefit greatly from this
new agreement as we combine Lufthansa Technik's maintenance, repair,
overhaul and engineering capabilities with the design knowledge of
Honeywell. Just like with the CFM56 engines, Lufthansa Technik will  
be able to repair Honeywell LEAP line replaceable units in-house and
offer world-class flight-hour based component support services,
including tailored asset management solutions."

Lufthansa Technik and Honeywell have enjoyed a long standing,
collaborative relationship including Lufthansa Technik as the
licensed component repair center and exclusive global asset provider
for all Honeywell products on Airbus A350 aircraft. Moreover,
Lufthansa Technik  brings a new level of predictive health management
expertise to airlines, with the inclusion of Honeywell Forge
analytics on Lufthansa Technik's AVIATAR platform.
