Moreover, with Several factors mentioned above are expected to drive the global expansion of the aviation MRO market, including rapid urbanization, economic growth especially in developing markets, and increased business and cross border tourism.
Aviation Maintenance Repair Overhaul (MRO) Market Overview
The global aviation maintenance repair overhaul (MRO) market is mainly driven by engine MRO, as engines are an integral part of the aircraft’s operation, and their operational efficiency needs to be regularly monitored to prevent accidents and engine breakdowns. The growing number of aircraft fleets across all regions further boosts the MRO industry over the coming years. Furthermore, the growing use of advanced technologies and maintenance management software in the aviation industry is likely to increase the demand for maintenance repair overhaul market worldwide. All these factors present a prominent future for the market and are expected to drive the aviation maintenance repair market in the next few years. Further, the Asia-Pacific region is growing at an exceptional rate due to the increasing number of aircraft fleet in developing countries and the growing air travel. China holds the largest share in the Asia-Pacific aviation maintenance repair overhaul (MRO) market due to large fleet of active aircrafts. Also, with more suitable infrastructure for MRO, Singapore has a higher CAGR in the global aviation maintenance repair overhaul (MRO) market over the forecast period.
Aviation Maintenance Repair Overhaul (MRO) Market Drivers
One of the main factors driving the global aviation MRO market is the requirement of airline MRO services due to the rapid growth of the aviation industry and the increase of air travel in many countries over the past few years. The emerging economies have a strong focus on providing MRO services for both the commercial and the military aircraft manufacturers, which leads to an increase in the frequency of MRO services for continued operation. Additionally, the adoption of new technologies within aircraft maintenance services has also contributed to the growth of the global aviation maintenance market. In addition, the increasing infrastructure of the aviation industry, economic growth, and the increase in the number of passengers are further contributing to the increase in aircraft sales and the growth of air travel. A growing middle class population is the main reason for the growth in air travel and the increasing demand for aircraft maintenance services in developing countries. Regulatory compliance with organizations such as Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is also increasing the demand for upgrade of older generation aircraft. Environmental concerns emphasize the need for ongoing monitoring and maintenance for old generation aircraft.
Aviation Maintenance Repair Overhaul (MRO) Market Challenge
The global aviation maintenance repair overhaul (MRO) market is facing challenges such as shortage of workforce supply, increase in labor force cost, lack of skilled workforce, and reduced demand for technical maintenance jobs from recent graduate engineers. These challenges are expected to impact the global aviation MRO industry over the forecast period. For MRO operators, the two options are right-sourcing or outsourcing which increases the time required for MRO service. Also, the ever-increasing material costs are becoming a key factor that will affect the growth of global aviation MRO market. Overall, MRO service providers seek to form strategic alliances with OEMs to assist them in sourcing aircraft parts and components, thereby reducing the time required for a complete MRO service. The market share of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in the aircraft MRO industry is increasing as OEMs are seeking different revenue generating streams, and MRO is among the prominent areas. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have begun to increase their profitability by providing expanded services to the aftermarket. This results in delayed in MRO services and slows down the market growth.
