The aviation mro market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $83 billion in 2025 to $88.69 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in global aircraft fleets increasing demand for routine inspection and overhaul services, rising regulatory requirements mandating comprehensive repair and maintenance activities, expansion of mro facilities to support rapid turnaround and parts availability, increased integration of digital recordkeeping systems improving maintenance documentation accuracy, advancements in diagnostic technologies enhancing detection of wear and structural issues.
The aviation mro market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $114.51 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing adoption of predictive maintenance solutions leveraging ai and data analytics, increasing outsourcing of mro activities to specialized third-party providers, expansion of automated and robotic inspection systems reducing labor requirements, rising demand for component-level mro due to next-generation aircraft technologies, development of advanced materials requiring new repair techniques and specialized expertise. Major trends in the forecast period include predictive maintenance using advanced diagnostics, remote monitoring and digital twin implementation, integration of automated inspection drones, fleet optimization and turnaround time reduction, green mro practices and eco-friendly maintenance solutions.
The growing demand for aircraft is a significant factor propelling the aviation MRO market forward. Aircraft, serving diverse purposes such as passenger and cargo transport, military applications, surveillance, and recreation, necessitate routine maintenance and timely access to spare parts. Statistics from the Bureau of Infrastructure and Transport Research Economics (BITRE) highlight a 1.7% increase in Regular Public Transport (RPT) aircraft trips in June 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This heightened demand for aircraft underscores the essential role of aviation MRO services in sustaining and enhancing the operational capabilities of aircraft.
Leading companies in the aviation MRO market are developing aviation software designed to improve operational efficiency, decrease maintenance costs, and enhance aircraft safety and reliability. This software aims to revolutionize Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) operations by integrating advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline processes and increase efficiency. For example, in September 2024, Ramco Systems Ltd, a technology company based in India, launched Aviation Software 6.0, which seeks to transform Maintenance and Engineering (M&E) and MRO operations through AI-driven insights and automation. This software features a specialized engine MRO module and cloud-based 'Anywhere Apps' for remote management, thereby enhancing accessibility and organizational agility.
In January 2023, Airbus Helicopters, a renowned French manufacturer of commercial helicopters and airliners, acquired ZF Luftfahrttechnik. This acquisition not only expands Airbus Helicopters' MRO capabilities but also enhances its overall value proposition for stakeholders. ZF Luftfahrttechnik, based in Germany, is a specialized provider of helicopter MRO services, and this strategic acquisition underscores the industry's commitment to advancing MRO capabilities through strategic partnerships and technological integration.
