AbstractThe purpose of providing component availability service is to maximize aircraft utilization by keeping spare units ready to be installed whenever needed. Since the size of the fleet supported by the spare component inventory is the most important driver behind the inventory cost, inventory pooling among a number of airlines is an intuitive way of exploiting the scale economies of availability services. This study demonstrates the savings potential of balanced inventory pooling arrangements among various airlines. Managerial implications of successful cooperation are discussed.
