MAB Engineering secures country's first aircraft maintenance digital certification
SEPANG: MAB Engineering Services Sdn Bhd, which is the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services arm of Malaysia Aviation Group Bhd (MAG), marked its first year as a new entity obtaining the country’s first-ever aircraft maintenance digital certification.

In May 2023, Malaysia Airlines Bhd’s (MAB) engineering and maintenance services arm underwent a reorganisation, which saw the incorporation of MAB Engineering Services, which is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of MAG.

"As part of MAB Engineering Services’ digitalisation initiative in support of MAG’s Long Term Business Plan 2.0, this project aims to enhance efficiency and accuracy in delivering our engineering and maintenance services,” MAB Engineering Services chief operating officer Eke Nazri Rahim said at the launch of a suite of initiatives, including the digital certification here today.

“Working closely with the Airworthiness Division of the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM), we are bringing changes to the current regulatory requirement to enable the implementation of the first-ever aircraft maintenance digital certification in Malaysia.

“The success will be a cornerstone in moving Malaysia’s aircraft maintenance industry into paperless aircraft certification, as well as strengthen our position as the MRO provider of choice,” he added.

According to Eke, this milestone not only signifies a huge leap in efficiency and security for MRO activities but sets the foundation for the implementation of the Aircraft Electronic Tech Log system which will be adopted by airline subsidiaries Malaysia Airlines, Firefly and MASwings.

He added that the integration of digital signatures into MAB Engineering Services’ mobility solution enhances operational efficiency and reliability as engineering personnel are able to authenticate their actions and approvals digitally, removing the need for manual signatures and paper-based documentation.
