Supplier risk

Supplier reliability is part of your AOG risk.

When a part isn't on the shelf, supplier performance decides whether an aircraft flies or waits. AOG Shield scores supplier reliability so sourcing decisions account for real lead-time and certificate risk.

How suppliers drive AOG risk

Lead-time variability, slow quotes, and certificate issues turn a routine sourcing event into a downtime risk. These patterns are measurable — but rarely tracked against AOG exposure.

  • Long or variable lead times on critical parts
  • Slow quote response under time pressure
  • Late deliveries against committed dates
  • Certificate or documentation issues on received parts

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.
