In addition, the cooperation has helped GAMECO strengthen its maintenance capabilities and achieve strategic priorities.

?Boeing's Inventory Management Program is data-based and tailored to the needs of GAMECO,? said GAMECO General Manager Norbert Marx. ?This program will secure the availability of parts and material in a timely and cost-efficient way while reducing our inventory holding costs. GAMECO is excited to enter into this smart program with Boeing to the benefit of better support to China Southern Airlines and our broad domestic and international airline customer base."
