AOG Risk Intelligence

Find parts-driven AOG risk before it grounds aircraft.

AOG Shield helps airlines, cargo operators, and MRO teams identify high-risk aircraft, stations, parts, suppliers, and certificate gaps — then recommends what to transfer, source, repair, or review.

Front-facing aircraft on the runway centerline

Predict risk. Prepare parts. Reduce downtime.

Identify Risk

Surface the parts, aircraft, and stations most likely to drive AOG events.

Prioritize Action

Get clear, data-backed recommendations to reduce avoidable disruptions.

Reduce Downtime

Position the right part in the right place before the aircraft is grounded.

The Problem

Parts-driven AOG risk is costly, complex, and often detectable earlier.

Most AOG events trace back to predictable parts, station, and supplier issues — but they are often discovered too late, under schedule pressure.

Key AOG Risk Drivers

Parts Unavailability

Missing or insufficient serviceable parts at the right station when they are needed.

Station Imbalance

Uneven inventory across stations leads to local stockouts and emergency buys.

Supplier & Lead Time Uncertainty

Long, variable, or unreliable lead times increase the chance of a stockout.

Documentation & Certificate Gaps

Missing or expiring certificates can ground aircraft as much as parts.

The Business Impact

A single avoidable AOG can create a cascade of cost, delay, and customer impact.

$10K–$150K

Estimated cost per hour an aircraft is grounded

$50K–$150K+

Typical cost of a single-day AOG event

~$60B / yr

Industry flight-disruption cost (~8% of revenue)

Industry estimates, not Ashe System figures. Actual AOG-related disruption varies by aircraft type, delay duration, passenger or cargo impact, logistics, and recovery actions. Sources: StartPac (per-hour grounding cost; ~$60B / ~8%-of-revenue industry disruption) and Air Cargo Week (single-day AOG event cost).

A recommendation, end to end

One alert. The whole decision.

Every advisory pairs a risk score with the reasons behind it and a specific action — so teams can act with confidence and a clear audit trail.

High risk — 89 / 100

Aircraft N214DA is scheduled to arrive at PIT tomorrow.

Action required

PIT has 0 serviceable hydraulic pumps.

ORD has 3 serviceable units with usable certificate records.

Recommended action

Transfer 1 hydraulic pump from ORD to PIT before arrival.

Why this advisory

  • No serviceable stock at the destination station
  • Related hydraulic write-ups detected on the aircraft
  • Certified stock available at a nearby station

Suggested review. Human maintenance, quality, and planning review required before action.

Decision-support & advisory

AOG Shield is a decision-support and risk-advisory system. It does not determine airworthiness, approve parts for installation, certify regulatory compliance, or replace human maintenance, quality, or planning review.
