Spoiler Alert: MRO Software Integration with LMS is now available!



There is an Airbus A320 in the hangar that is due for scheduled maintenance and repair. There were some technical issues reported from the cabin during its last flight. There is a brilliant MRO engineer available in the hangar, but another engineer must be brought in from another hangar, or worse, another location because the engineer present did not complete his update training on DGCA mandates for this aircraft. Precious time wasted!


Recently one of the largest names in Aviation reached out to GCube to discuss real time scenarios like the one mentioned above. They challenged us to resolve the issue of training MRO personnel who are least likely to be able to come in for classroom training, but who are most likely to need regular certification as per DGCA or ESA regulations. We spent significant manhours, researching, analyzing, and even hunting down data and we were successful in winning the challenge. Based on our research we successfully created and implemented the GCube Learning Management System (LMS) which had been seamlessly integrated with the company’s Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul (MRO) software.

The World Class GCube LMS for Aviation, integrated with MRO Software is the Game Changer.

Learning Linked to Engineering Info on MRO Software

MRO software captures and contains data as well as information on the various aspects of maintenance, repair, and overhaul. Because structural repair manuals are proprietary information retained by the manufacturers it is up to subject matter experts to keep training manuals ready based on their knowledge and experience. When MRO software is linked to the online LMS, this information is easy to access when the need arises.

Managed Compliance Monitoring and MRO Software

MRO software captures information from the airport authorities, equipment suppliers, and other staff members to ensure smooth operations. When this information is integrated with the LMS, it provides specific learning paths including regulatory compliance training and certifications. For any changes in the online engineering modules due to knowledge updates or ESA/DGCA requirements, the LMS identifies the impacted roles and pushes out the mandatory training to these individuals for completion. The LMS also tracks and reports on completion status so at any point the LMS dashboard provides a view of compliance training completion.

Using MRO Software for Creating and Deploying Maintenance Training

MRO software captures technical failures, faults as well as any issues reported by staff from the cabin or in-flight. The LMS which is integrated with MRO software and the engineering module, can proactively share the maintenance procedure with the MRO personnel. It can also be integrated to inventory software for part availability as well as supplier information for unavailable parts. All in all, the MRO and LMS integration helps make the MRO operations more efficient.

Learning from Anywhere

MRO personnel are working from multiple, far flung locations and so classroom environments are difficult to set up. The GCube LMS created specifically for Aviation is an easy-to-use portal that caters to different work positions, learning styles, and interests, easily accessible through personalized mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Therefore, any new training, or update training is received by MRO personnel wherever they are, and they can complete their training, assessment, and certification from anywhere.

The GCube LMS integration with MRO software has helped in the overall learning and growth of personnel especially in roles like maintenance, quality control, engineering, and even pilots and cabin crew. It has also become a proactive partner for regulatory compliance requirements helping the company stay ahead at the time of audits.

At GCube, we have 20 years of experience and 80+ industry awards in learning technologies; and would love to hear your thoughts, queries, and suggestions on this integration. Please do write to us.
