Embraer and Kenya Airways have signed an agreement for the Embraer Collaborative Inventory Planning (ECIP) program. The deal, which will optimise the airline’s inventory levels and reduce its operational costs for its E190 jets, will provide support for 13 aircraft. Kenya Airways is an Embraer customer since 2006 and flies to 45 destinations worldwide, 37 of which are in Africa, connecting over five million passengers.
“Embraer is honoured by Kenya Airways’ trust on the Collaborative Inventory Planning management system. We are ready to support the airline to keep its E-Jets fleet ready to fly, matching excellent performance and low operational costs. Our solution will provide Kenya Airways access to Embraer’s global logistics network and deepen the partnership between our companies,” says Carlos Naufel, President and CEO, Embraer Services & Support.
