Quantum Control Enables Embraer to Complete U.S. Service Center Certification

SAN DIEGO, Calif., November 24, 2008 --[ASDWire]-- With the launch of five new business jet programs in the past three years, Embraer called upon San Diego-based Component Control to implement Quantum Control aviation enterprise resource planning (ERP) software for its new Embraer Executive Jets service centers opening this quarter in the United States. Quantum Control’s integrated applications and easy-to-use features enabled all three EEJS centers to receive FAA certification, continuing Embraer’s momentum toward becoming a major player in the business aviation market.

“Key Embraer personnel demonstrated creating work orders, job cards, non-routines, and other work-flow documents from Quantum, all of which the FAA found satisfactory,” said Todd Lewis, Component Control president and COO. “Quantum’s efficiency, accuracy and completeness were major factors in obtaining FAA certification quickly and easily.”

Quantum Control combines aircraft maintenance, shop floor control, inventory management, accounting, e-commerce, sales and invoicing, and other business functions into an integrated cross-functional system. Embraer’s Mesa, Ariz., Executive Jets service center, which held its grand opening in mid-September, went live with Quantum Control using Logistics, Accounting, Time and Attendance, and Fixed Asset modules, with additional capabilities being added as needed. Quantum has also been implemented at Embraer’s Windsor Locks, Conn., and Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., EEJS centers.
