Case Study: L3 Waco achieves rapid digital work-instruction deployment with iBase-t Solumina

L3 Waco’s 90-Day Turnaround with Solumina

L3 Waco, a division of L3 Aerospace in the aerospace and defense industry, needed to modernize its complex aircraft modification operations for legacy and new “green tail” platforms. Facing paper-based work instructions, inconsistent execution, and a tight timeline to bid on a new helicopter modification contract, the team needed a faster, more reliable way to generate and validate executable work instructions. iBase-t’s Solumina platform was selected to help drive the digital transformation.

iBase-t implemented Solumina to digitize and standardize work instructions across programs like the KC-10 and C-130, enabling L3 Waco to rapidly stand up new programs and respond to changing requirements. The result was a successful three-month turnaround to deliver executable digital work instructions, win the helicopter modification contract, and exceed customer expectations, while also establishing a scalable paperless process that supports quality and compliance.
