Massive technical documentation
Manuals, bills of materials, routings, non-conformance reports: the information exists but takes too long to find.
Industries / Aerospace & defence
AI for airworthiness, production and through-life support.
Manufacturers, equipment makers, subcontractors and MRO providers handle huge volumes of technical documentation under strict traceability rules. WAICE helps them use that knowledge, modernise applications and secure AI use, including in sensitive environments.
Challenges
What teams are dealing with.
Long cycles, tight rates
Production ramp-ups, supplier delays and skills shortages weigh on production and support.
Know-how heading into retirement
Part of the expertise sits with experienced people whose knowledge must be passed on.
Sensitive data
Export control and restricted information mean not every AI tool can be used.
What WAICE brings
Five angles, one method.
Business
Configuration, airworthiness and through-life support
- Assistance for technicians and design offices
- Analysis of non-conformances and lessons learned
- Preparation of certification files
Data & AI
Technical documentation, bills of materials and maintenance history
- Search across technical documentation
- Links between BOMs, routings and non-conformances
- PLM, ERP and MES data quality
Infrastructure & applications
PLM, ERP, MES and maintenance applications, often legacy
- Business application modernisation
- PLM / ERP / MES integration
- Sovereign or on-premise hosting where needed
Cybersecurity
Defence data, export control and isolated networks
- AI deployable on-premise or offline
- Fine-grained access rights
- Alignment with national security agency requirements
Regulation & compliance
EASA Part 21 and Part 145, EN 9100, export control (ITAR, EAR, EU dual-use regime)
- Traceability of AI-assisted decisions
- Documentation for quality audits
- Classification of AI uses under the AI Act
AI systems used exclusively for military purposes are outside the AI Act, but civil and dual-use applications remain in scope.
