Why It Is Important to Order Aviation & Engine Parts Early

While Buy Aviation Parts offers rapid lead-times and expedited shipping, the United States is currently falling deeper into supply chain issues that impact all those involved in the aviation industry. This can cause slower delivery times than usual and makes efficient purchasing a challenge. Therefore, the following blog will discuss some of the major issues disrupting the supply chain and the importance of ordering aircraft and engine parts sooner rather than later.

There are four major issues currently affecting the supply chain of aviation and engine components. First, there are scarce materials available, as demand for essential aircraft components is increasing at a higher rate than the production of supplies. The lack of materials can, in turn, lead supply chains to slow or halt entirely. This increases not only lead times but also forces several manufacturers to increase prices to meet their own financial goals. A second major issue is the ability to forecast how much inventory is in demand is becoming more difficult, causing production accuracy to falter and manufacturers to underestimate how high in demand their products are.

In addition to production issues, the supply chain also faces port congestion. In conjunction with labor shortages that plague national supply chains, the ability to unload deliveries efficiently has become a challenge that causes back ups in ports. This only furthers the complications in attempting to meet a deadline. The last major issue that has been plaguing supply chains is the increase in freight prices. With a recent increase in demand for shipping containers, their availability has become limited and shipping costs have gone up.

While these issues impact all those involved in the industry, the best way to avoid emergency situations is to order your aircraft and engine parts as soon as possible. Waiting for an aircraft to break down to acquire the parts it requires may be risky, as overnight shipping is becoming less plausible. While we still have a host of products we can send out the same day, this isn’t possible with all popular items, as per the issue of supply versus demand. We work to make sure that customers can procure our parts “as soon as possible, as simple as possible,” so we find it important that our customers are fully informed in regard to the current issues impacting all orders.

Whether you require common or obsolete parts, we encourage you to kick-off the procurement process today for any items you might require in the near future.
