British Airways has completed the roll-out of its Engineering
Wide System (EWS), one of Europe's largest SAP implementations and
the world's biggest aircraft maintenance SAP system.
The project involved replacing 150 legacy applications with SAP,
which now controls aircraft maintenance in 26 hangars and at 142
airports worldwide. EWS also controls engineering staffing, spares
supply and airworthiness data.
BA said the benefits of EWS included improved accuracy in
tracking maintenance requirements and quicker processes for
ordering parts.
