The Challenge

Qanot Sharq Airlines have a highly complex supply chain for their fleet of Airbus aircraft, they currently operate 2 A320-200, 2 A321neo and 2 A330-200.

With many challenging factors airline procurement teams face issues with aircraft spare supply, logistical challenges, geopolitical and jet fuel to name but a few.

Qanot Sharq are a relatively new airline to the market, and having most of their aircraft spare suppliers in the UK & US, they had challenges with relying on multiple freight forwarders to ship their routine, critical and AOG shipments to their engineering facility in Tashkent.

They faced lack of visibility, uncontrollable freight costs and beyond par customer service.
