Aviation MRO software facilitates condition-based maintenance support and predictive maintenance analysis as software-as-a-service to end-users such as OEMs, airline operators, and MROs. It comprises a huge management, database and modules for business, maintenance, electronic flightbag & logbook, and operations, which can be deployed on premise or be provided through a cloud-based platform.


Technological advancements in commercial and military aviation is a significant market driver. The aviation industry has become more connected and data-driven to ground-based MRO systems for predictive maintenance, tracking, and efficient MRO operations based on data collected by aviation MRO software using aviation analytics and digital twin technologies. Aviation Digital Twin facilitates end-users to conduct various MRO functions using virtual aircraft models for predictive maintenance tracking and other MRO applications. IoT enables location and sensor-recorded data. The end-users can subject the digital aircraft twin to the environment and weather conditions for aviation analytics and predictive maintenance tracking. A rise in the use of aviation analytics and digital twin technologies drives the market growth during the forecast period. Over 16,000 commercial aircraft were grounded or parked due to ban on international travel. The demand for maintenance has drastically reduced and adversely impacted the software and services domain due to grounded aircraft. However, a growth in post-pandemic aircraft deliveries and resumed airport operations is expected to boost the demand for aviation MRO software, thereby growing the market in the forecast period.


Aviation MRO Software Market Trends


Increasing Use of Technologies Such as Artificial Intelligence, Augmented Reality, and the Internet of Things to Boost Market Growth


The emergence of Machine Learning, IoT, AI, and AR is expected to boost transformation in the aviation sector. For instance, in July 2022, Air Asia Company, a Taiwan-based privately owned aircraft maintenance company deployed an aviation suite. The suite is said to be equipped with latest upgrades of artificial intelligence and machine learning as a part of business automation and digital transformation. Additionally, machine learning generates algorithms from existing data and can anticipate future outcomes based on new data. Adopting machine learning in MRO software is expected to reduce supply chain risk and detect potential risk areas in a project, apart from numerous other advantages. Artificial intelligence with voice interface is anticipated to increase staff productivity and efficiency and reduce the need for training and simple operations.


Integration of IoT in the MRO software will help manage the enormous data. The complete value chain can be connected using IoT, enabling more reliable, efficient, and faster processes from production to supply chain operations. The MRO sector uses AR for faster training. The AR allows skilled engineers to provide support remotely, saving time and cost for operations. Thus, adopting emerging technologies such as AR, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and IoT are anticipated to create tremendous opportunities for aviation MRO software market growth in the coming years.

Aviation MRO Software Market Growth Factors


Expansion of Air Fleet to Increase Demand for Advanced MRO Will Accentuate Market Growth


A continuous increase in air travel in developing countries such as India and China is expected to increase the demand for new aircraft in major countries. The MRO software costs account for roughly one-fifth of the airline’s operational costs. A surge is to be experienced by the passenger-growth trend, with engines attracting the bulk of the maintenance prices. Considering categorization, airframe maintenance, line maintenance, and component may share the majority of operator cost bifurcation. With aircraft maintenance a priority, air operators have choices among aircraft OEMs, independent MROs, and components.


For instance, in November 2023, CDB Aviation, an Irish subsidiary of China Development Bank Financial Leasing Co Ltd, unveiled the delivery of the first of a fleet of six Airbus A320neo aircraft to Air India, while SpiceJet undertook the induction of five leased Boeing 737s including three 737 MAX aircraft into their fleet as a fleet expansion plan.


Airlines globally focus on expanding their aircraft fleet size due to the rising air passenger traffic. The market growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing number of aircraft fleets. The MRO sector is expected to grow steadily through the next decade due to the increasing demand for air travel and growing aircraft fleet.


Increase in Post-Pandemic Travel Activities to Drive Market Growth


Since the number of COVID-19 patients is going down, followed by the ease in travel restrictions and implementation of safety regulations by airlines and airport authorities, aviation MRO software is anticipated to experience a rise in market growth in the forthcoming years due to a subsequent surge in the number of travelers in the post-pandemic period. The increasing demand for air travel has led to increased flight hours for aircraft. Additionally, the life cycle of various aircraft components, such as landing gear, brakes, engines, wheels, and others, decreases due to increased flight hours. Hence, the airlines and MRO operators focus on regular preventive aircraft checkups, health updates, and servicing. Increased adoption of MRO software to increase the efficiency of operations by collecting data generated by aircraft is expected to fuel the market growth during the forecast period.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost of Research and Development to Limit Market Growth


Despite a rise in the demand for aviation MRO software, the high cost associated with research and development of such software and services is anticipated to restrain the market growth. The MRO software meets the needs of most electronic transmission, surveillance applications & communication, and others. With increased technological development in equipment and software, it must be advanced to maintain platform compatibility.


However, the high costs associated with the R&D of the particular technology are due to the complexity of the design and development of the module. Additionally, the development and integration of systems across the platforms and the maintenance of these systems are expensive. Hence, these factors are anticipated to affect market growth negatively.
