SIA Engineering to form airframe maintenance JV with Airbus

It’s the first of its kind for SIAEC.

SIA Engineering is about to land a big fish collaboration as it plans to form a joint venture (JV) with aircraft giant Airbus, entailing SIAEC to provide airframe maintenance, cabin upgrade and modification services for Airbus A380, A350 and A330 aircraft to airlines in Asia-Pacific and beyond.

According to a press release by SIA Engineering, the joint venture marks the first collaboration with a major aircraft manufacturer for airframe maintenance.

Under the agreement, the release said SIAEC will hold a 65% stake in the JV, with Airbus holding the remaining 35%.

“The joint venture combines SIAEC’s extensive maintenance experience with Airbus’ technical expertise as an airframe original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Airbus will develop the joint venture as its Centre of Excellence for Airbus A380 and A350 Heavy Maintenance in Asia, which will strengthen SIAEC’s extensive airframe service offerings in Singapore and the Philippines,” the press release said.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
