Advantages of PMA
Some parts are rare and others are no longer available at all. We can help.
Compatibility
Risk reduction
Price reduction
Absolute satisfaction
Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) keep raising the prices for their products on an annual average of 3-5%, jet fuel prices continue to fluctuate and the global passenger traffic growth has yet to recover from the recent crisis. Such a business environment forces airlines and other aviation industry players to seek for more effective optimization solutions. Since the repair and acquisition of aircraft parts, components and other materials account for a lion’s share of airlines’ maintenance costs, the utilization of alternative, non-OEM solutions may provide airlines with up to 10-15% savings per single case.
Currently the global maintenance market is valued at $47-49 billion per year with the potential to expand by approx. $20 billion in the upcoming years. Endeavouring to benefit from the ever-growing aircraft aftermarket, original equipment manufacturers have considerably expanded their sphere of interest far beyond the production area itself.

According to Avia Solutions Group experts, today the overall PMA market is worth over $1 billion. Until year 2000 the USA was the prime market for the PMA production, since the majority of PMA manufacturers were based in North America. However, driven by the rising fuel prices and the need to optimize their business, carriers and MROs in other regions became more and more open to alternative solutions. As a result, in 2009 the North and South Americas combined accounted for 47% of the global PMA market only, whereas Europe, the Middle East and Africa already accounted for 35%, Asia and Oceania – for 18%.
