E-commerce Because the company began operations in the post dot.com era of the late 1990s, AirLiance Materials was able to tie its entire acquired inventory into an electronic commerce system designed to speed and simplify the acquisition and delivery of aircraft parts. The first phase of the system was received enthusiastically by airline and MRO customers around the globe, evidenced by the fact that a significant and growing percent of the company's business is progressively being conducted electronically. In 2001, AirLiance Materials launched the second phase of the website, developed based on feedback from a global contingent of customers. Second-stage e-commerce system now offers a number of enhancements that further simplified the acquisition, delivery and tracking of pedigree commercial aircraft replacement parts. In addition to offering powerful new benefits to existing users, the system grants immediate temporary passwords to new and legitimate potential customers. In addition, the system now stores and displays relevant material documentation online, reducing the paper workload of the company's customers significantly. Other highlights include an advanced "shopping cart" that dramatically simplifies RFQ and order processes, automatic e-mail confirmation of orders processed, and online access to all material documentation. Perhaps most importantly, AirLiance e-system is one of the industry's few real-time, production-linked systems tied to its on-site inventory. Unlike "catalog-based" systems, it is equipped with sophisticated and automated purchase-order tracking tools, which allows for no lag time between order and part allocation. Quality systems AirLiance Materials LLC is an accredited distributor meeting the American National Standards Institute System Standard "ISO 9001:2000", under the provisions of FAA Advisory Circular AC 00-56A. AirLiance relies on advanced quality systems that far exceed the requirements of the FAA and other regulatory guidelines. The company fully complies with FAA Advisor Circular 20-62D guidelines for parts identification and documentation. All of the parts distributed are traceable to FAA Certificate Holders. All parts distributed by AirLiance Materials are traceable to FAA or internationally approved and regulated sources, and the company is one of the few in the industry to use a sophisticated optical imaging system for document storage and retrieval. All documentation is available online for review and printing on the company's e-commerce site. AirLiance Materials is also a member of the Aviation Suppliers Association. |
