Meggitt PLC, a leading international company specializing in high performance components for the aerospace and beyond, has signed a 3-year, multimillion euro SMARTSupport contract with FL Technics to supply MRO (Maintenance Repair and Overhaul) services for sensors, valves, actuators, and fire extinguishers to operators across Eastern Europe and the CIS.

FL Technics is a part of the Avia Solutions Group, a global aerospace service provider with a vast network of subsidiary companies, including Jet Maintenance Solutions, who will also be taking part in related projects, and this agreement significantly extends the cooperation potential between the two companies,

Stewart Watson, President of Meggitt’s Services & Support division said, “This latest contract further strengthens our partnership with FL Technics and opens up new opportunities for us in the Eastern European and Russian regions. We are also delighted to welcome Jet Maintenance Solutions to our family of customers and hope to continue to build on our relationship with the prestigious Avia Solutions group of companies over the coming years.”

This new SMARTSupport contract is in addition to an existing agreement with FL Technics for the rest of Europe and extends Meggitt’s MRO service offering to better support the company’s growing customer base in Eastern Europe.

Zilvinas Lapinskas, CEO of FL Technics, and a board member of directors at Avia Solutions Group, further emphasises, “The extension of the scope of our previous agreements demonstrates mutual trust and dedication towards our business relationship, that is now, safe to say, evolving into a full-scale partnership. I am confident this will bring extended range of opportunities in the near-term and strengthen strategic cooperation.”
