Without warranty reimbursements, aircraft owners and operators would have one less reason to report malfunctions to the manufacture, which the manufacturer needs to make safety and reliability improvements. This is especially important for spare part failures, which occur long after the new aircraft warranty has expired.
Most aerospace manufactures build into the price of their products the cost of warranty, which you pay for. To reduce the cost of operating your fleet, it's your responsibility to squeeze every warranty dollar from the parts you buy. All to often, warranty claims are missed because mechanics have scrapped parts without considering the warranty ramifications. Think about something as benign as a bolt, it looks pretty much worn out, but scrapping it without checking for potential warranty could mean losing an $800 claim. Too often operators forget that most helicopter and fixed-wing manufactures will honor warranty for parts valued as low as $50, even some parts that might be considered common wear-n-tear could have some warranty value.
Operators stand to lose thousands and experience higher operating costs per hour because warranty claims are missed due to the lack of in-house processing rules for handling failed parts.
Enter Warranty Manager:
Warranty Manager is a stand-alone software product, which is designed for, but not limited to, those operators who have existing MRO Systems, but fall short of accomplishing any warranty related processes. Warranty Manager is more than warranty recovery software, its a process.
