Case Study: Air France KLM FSSC achieves IT process continuity and unified multi-operator maintenance with IFS Maintenix

Achieving IT process continuity in Air France Industries and KLM Engineering & Maintenance

Air France-KLM, the combined Air France and KLM group, faced the challenge of unifying multiple maintenance organizations, regulatory practices and strong local cultures into a single MRO system that could support many aircraft types and multiple operators. Key requirements included a single repository of AMP tasks with the ability to select and issue operator-specific maintenance programs and temporary revisions, create separate Part‑145 organizations where needed, control user access to only the fleets they manage, and support different blocking strategies and workflows across customers.

The group implemented IFS Maintenix as a single, flexible repository and planning platform: AMP requirements are stored centrally and published per operator, TRs and AMPs can be issued independently, separate 145 organizations and fleet-specific user views are supported, and check/blocking strategies are configurable. Outcomes include faster, simpler TR issuance, continuous AMP revision capability, modular reporting and near‑paperless task card processes, smoother fleet inductions and ongoing SAP integration — while highlighting the need for clear governance, careful data scope and thorough testing during roll-out.
