Overview
Engine testing is a critical component of engine reliability and performance. However, the test cell owners currently use a variety of test stands, test cells, methodologies and configurations, and procurement can be complex due to the number of vendors who service and repair them.

Our Test Stand Sustainment & Integration solution contributes to consistency and reliability as well as improved procurement, maintenance and management of engine and gearbox testing.
Our Customers’ Challenges
Engine test equipment is complex and the “industry” is fragmented – there is no single reliable solution for sustaining test cells and test equipment. It is difficult to manage test stand repairs and modifications – too many independent contracts often requiring more than one sub-contractor result in numerous proposal requirements. The current repair and modification process is time consuming and rarely yields timely responses. Difficulty in procurement and lack of test stand configuration control are often leading reasons for early or unnecessary replacement of equipment and software.
