On March 10, Embraer, a global aerospace and defence leader, and leading African airline Kenya Airways, signed an agreement for the Embraer Collaborative Inventory Planning (ECIP) programme. The ECIP programme aims to optimise inventory levels and reduce operational costs for E190 jets.

Embraer Collaborative Inventory Planning (ECIP) Programme

Brazil-based aircraft manufacturer, Embraer, are committed to their mission of providing streamlined and sustainable solutions for the aviation industry. This now includes the signing of a contract with Kenya Airways on the ECIP programme, which aids in managing the inventory of expendables such as spare aircraft parts.

The majority of the inventory investment in the programme is made by Embraer, which reduces the burden of investment on customers like Kenya Airways. Fixed yearly pricing for each aircraft part will allow for balanced costs, with performance levels guaranteed by Embraer Services & Support. Additionally, by analysing customer usage and stock level data, the ECIP programme will recommend customers a weekly order. Therefore, Kenya Airways will lower their operational costs through Embraer’s optimisation of inventory levels.

Carlos Naufel, President and CEO of Embraer Services & Support said:

“Embraer is honoured by Kenya Airways’ trust on the Collaborative Inventory Planning management system. We are ready to support the airline to keep its E-Jets fleet ready to fly, matching excellent performance and low operational costs. Our solution will provide Kenya Airways access to Embraer’s global logistics network and deepen the partnership between our companies.”

Kenya Airways’ Recent Developments

Kenya Airways connects over five million passengers, flying to forty-five destinations worldwide – thirty-seven of which are in Africa. Kenya Airways has worked with Embraer since 2006, signifying efforts to boost African innovation and strengthen global partnerships. The signed contract between Embraer and Kenya Airways will provide support for thirteen aircraft.

This development comes after the announcement that Kenya Airways is hosting the International Air Transport Association (IATA)’s 37th Ground Handling Conference. This event is scheduled for May, and will cover developments in coordination and collaboration to modernise operations and streamline existing processes. Kenya Airways holds a significant role in arranging the 2025 conference, as it is the first time the event will be taking place in Africa. This, alongside the signing of the ECIP programme, demonstrates an invigorated commitment to driving economic and social growth across the African continent.

What are your thoughts on the ECIP programme, and how do you think this can benefit Kenya Airways’ advancement? Let us know in the comments.
