In order to do so, we have to meet the stringent quality requirements and procedures laid down by NATO in AQAP 2120 (Allied Quality Assurance Publications).

Our AQAP certification guarantees that the quality of our production and systems is assured in accordance with the strict NATO standards.

This applies not only to the technical quality of the components, but also to the process in which they are made.

Central to this is our digital Product Data Management which is linked to our ERP system.

Every step in our production process is specified in our Product Data Management and ERP system.

We order exclusively from suppliers with the correct certification, so that the quality of the material is guaranteed.

Aqap 2120 Full Compliance With

Thanks to closed batch registration, we are able to guarantee 100 traceability of all components, in full compliance with the AS 9100 certification standard.

This means we can avoid any measurement errors due to expansion or contraction as a result of variations in temperature.

We are able to monitor dimensions to an accuracy of micrometres.

Furthermore Daedalus is providing line- and phase maintenance support for the Norwegian Air force on their F-16 bases.

Specifically for the repair of the F-16 Fatigue Analysis Combat Evaluation (FACE) system and the Color Multi Function Displays (CMFDs) Daedalus has its own repair shop in Tilburg.

Through its strategic relationship with the RNLAF depot maintenance organization in Woensdrecht (LCW) all other depot level support can be delivered.

Through this approach the customer can choose from a wide (almost complete) variety of aviation support services, ranging from assistance with technical personnel and provision of on-the-job training to full execution of projects or outsourcing of work packages.

All related activities, personnel and equipment, including program management and work planning, will be fully integrated and coordinated by Daedalus and its involved partners.

Futhermore, this synergy will save money since the cost of a fully integrated support package will be lower than the sum of all individual elements.

Customers can select for project based, temporary support, structural outsourcing of a select part of the business or they can just hire our experienced technical personnel.

In Tilburg Daedalus has an avionics shop that specializes in repairs of F-16 FACE (Fatigue Analysis and Combat Evaluation) and CMFD (Color Multi Function Display) units.

Daedalus currently supports the following platforms.

These services range from consultancy to support with Aerospace Ground Equipment, IT Systems, Publication Management and Supply Chain Management.

Among the nationalities that work for us are technicians from the USA, Turkey, France and The Netherlands.

Besides their standard work force our database contains well over 2000 specialists that have worked for the company in the past or sent in their CVs and passed our criteria.

In most cases these OJTs will be combined with actual execution of the projects themselves.

During this project Daedalus gradually turns over the work to ENAER, in this case, by performing the work on the first aircraft themselves while ENAER looks over the shoulder, perform the work together with ENAER on the second aircraft and have ENEAR do the third aircraft by themselves while Daedalus watches over their shoulder.

Daedalus is working on integrating innovative solutions based on Virtual Maintenance Trainers which eventually can also be purchased by the customer in support of their future contingency.

Daedalus supports customers in obtaining the best quality repairs for competitive pricing and the shortest turn times.

Daedalus has an extensive knowledge of the military aviation market and is able to provide a solution for those Air Forces that are not equipped to support the sales effort.
