Adnan Mansur, Head of Innovation and Digital Services, and Joel Cadaux, Director Business & Services of Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS, exchange signed documents, witnessed by executives from both companies.

SINGAPORE, 25th September 2024 – Asia Digital Engineering (ADE) and Liebherr-Aerospace have signed a cooperation agreement during the event MRO Asia-Pacific 2024. Based on this collaboration, ADE will benefit from Liebherr-Aerospace’s set of predictive maintenance algorithms and further trend monitoring applications. Combined with advanced technical support, these will bring added value to the maintenance of the full scope of Liebherr products, such as bleed, air management, and flight control components on board Airbus A320 / A321 aircraft. 

ADE’s own digital fleet management platform, ELEVADE™ is Asia's first commercially available aircraft health management system. Built as a comprehensive ecosystem, it streamlines real-time aircraft health monitoring, encompassing a large fleet of Airbus aircraft and will be continuously fed by Liebherr-Aerospace's health management predictors, which are tailored to the products developed by the European Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The tool helps to manage and monitor the health status of aircraft and manages, analyzes and predicts unexpected issues in real time.

“This collaboration with ADE highlights the growing need from the aerospace industry for new digital solutions that we can provide,” said Alex Vlielander, Chief Customer Officer of Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS. “These new predictors based on our vast OEM and customer service experience will fit perfectly into ADE’s current offer and match with their objective to support fleet performance.”  

Adnan Mansur, Head of Innovation and Digital Services at ADE said "At ADE, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation to deliver a high-quality, reliable product for airlines. Our partnership with Liebherr-Aerospace enables us to integrate industry-leading predictive maintenance solutions into ELEVADE™, allowing us to proactively identify and resolve potential issues before they affect operations. We look forward to providing airlines with a cutting-edge solution that enhances fleet performance and streamlines maintenance management".
