Lufthansa Technik has adapted its well-established Total Component Support TCS® one-stop component solution to customs regulations and supply chain requirements in Russia and the Eurasian Customs Union.

This custom-tailored TCS® product for the region is provided through Lufthansa Technik Vostok Services, the Moscow-based, wholly-owned subsidiary of Lufthansa Technik.

“The valuable new features we have added to Lufthansa Technik’s proven TCS® product offer solid benefits for our customers in the region,” said Dmitri Zaitsev, Vice President Corporate Sales of Lufthansa Technik in Eastern Europe, Russia and the CIS.

“Airlines in Russia and the Eurasian Customs Union can utterly focus on their operations when we deliver our state-of-the-art component pooling services and a comprehensive supply chain management, which now includes door-to-door logistics and customs operations.”

Lufthansa Technik Vostok Services operates a newly established component pool located at Moscow’s Domodedovo International Airport. The pool is specially adapted to customs regulations and local market requirements and provides immediate access to custom-cleared material, reliable supply performance and 24/7 Russian/English speaking AOG (Aircraft on Ground) support. At the same time, customers benefit from Lufthansa Technik’s comprehensive in-house component repair capabilities.

Total Component Support is the solution for operators that want optimal component availability without the task of setting up and maintaining their own spare parts inventories.

Customers benefit from a unique pooling concept: Lufthansa Technik stocks more than 100,000 components and guarantees 100 percent reliable delivery at a pre-determined service level. Members of the Lufthansa Technik TCS® pool also benefit from reductions in operating costs through economies of scale.
