SEATTLE, Aug. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Boeing (NYSE: BA) and Seal
Dynamics, an integrated provider of engineering and logistics solutions
serving the industrial and airline industries, have signed an agreement
that will help airlines significantly reduce their maintenance costs.
This partnership is part of Boeing's Integrated Materials Management
(IMM) initiative, in which Boeing and suppliers such as Seal Dynamics
maintain an airline's inventory of spare parts, providing items as needed.
By reducing the airline's spare parts inventory, IMM reduces the cost of
doing business.
"Boeing welcomes Seal Dynamics to the Integrated Materials Management
family of customers and network suppliers. Seal Dynamics has extensive
knowledge and experience in providing innovative service solutions to its
customers," said Joe Brummitt, director of Integrated Materials Management
for Boeing. "The IMM service network and airline customers will greatly
benefit from this experience as we further expand the scope of IMM."
The Aerospace MRO Division of Seal Dynamics serves global, national and
regional carriers within the commercial airline and aviation industry.
Their strength in engineering and logistics expertise provide the product
solutions, services and support necessary to ensure the right products are
available to customers when they need them. "Seal Dynamics is pleased to
partner with Boeing in the IMM program. We are confident that our
commitment to world class supply solutions will bring tremendous value to
the IMM family of customers," said David Susser, president of Seal
Dynamics.
Integrated Materials Management is considered the next step in
expanding Boeing services to suppliers throughout the world to provide
value for airline customers and supplier partners by building on existing
materials management programs with airlines. Current IMM customers include
AirTran Airways, ANA, Nippon Cargo Airlines, Cathay Pacific Airways, Delta
Air Lines, Japan Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, SAS Technical
Services, Japan Transocean Air, Singapore Airlines, SIAEC and Thai
