Improved Accuracy
ChronicX finds valid recurring aircraft defects in your maintenance data by using a proprietary text-mining engine and machine learning. It reveals many recurring aircraft defects often missed by traditional analysis, improving the accuracy of the overall data by up to 80%.
Earlier Aircraft Defect Detection
ChronicX automatically identifies new or changing chronic issues as early as the second repeat, reducing the average time of response and helping airlines maintain aircraft availability.


Faster Resolution
ChronicX provides collaboration and workflow tools allowing for immediate validation of chronic aircraft defects and seamless communication between MOC, reliability, and line maintenance, guaranteeing a single source of truth.
Enhance the performance of aircraft managers by improving the accuracy of repetitive aircraft issue detection.

Chronic Identification
Using natural language processing and machine learning, ChronicX analyzes aircraft defect text, automatically grouping like issues.

Custom Notifications
Configure custom alerts and notifications based on defects to instantly notify maintenance personnel, resulting in fewer delays or cancellations.

Configurable Dashboards
Configure dashboards using custom criteria to analyze defect and chronic trends for individual aircraft views and fleet comparisons.

Synonym Dictionary
With its powerful and fast search, ChronicX allows users to identify chronic defects with spelling variations, synonyms, abbreviations, and more.

Integrated Reporting
ChronicX includes a robust set of reporting tools with filtering and sorting by various criteria, including tail number, part, code, flight, and more.

Custom Filtering
The ability to incorporate and integrate custom data elements from multiple sources as custom filter options for single source defect analysis.
Read what ChronicX customers have to say about the product and its features.
[ChronicX] found a tremendous amount more receptive items than we knew even existed. We were able to fix these items at a quicker pace and they never escalated into major operational problems in the aircraft.
With ChronicX we found that the tool has greatly improved our performance with accuracy with really more repetitive issues, efficiency, decreasing the time of identifying those issues, and overall the knowledge that the tool brings us.
Time savings, work flow, reliability are definitely keywords to use when talking about this service. With ChronicX, ATA miscoding is no longer an issue with the word search and data mining. We can now find chronics trends that span across 3 or 4 different ATAs.
Regulatory issues brought us to use the ChronicX program. After we started using it, it corrected all of the regulatory problems.
ChronicX is a more powerful tool than we’ve ever had before. It has improved our process on a daily basis.
Seeing some of the issues when we do see them hit, we are a lot better at reacting and getting them routed in before they do become another delay or cancel down the line.
They were spending around 4 hours a day on our old program, and now they have cut that in half to around 2 hours. They are now working to find solutions rather than trying to find which items are repetitive.
Prior to getting ChronicX, we would have to do a broad search of all write-ups, extract it into excel, filter it, try to find all the items tied to it and there could be hundreds of thousands of write-ups. When we got ChronicX, right away it was telling us “well here’s your write-ups that are all tied together.” It made it a lot simpler to see the history of what’s going on with it.
Using technology and intelligent data analysis to identify, analyze, and act on unscheduled maintenance events.
Currently in use on 25% of the world’s commercial airline fleet, ChronicX uncovers recurring defects and previously undetected issues, at both the tail number and fleet-level.
ChronicX also detects emerging failure modes that are yet to reach critical status. Custom targeted alerts enable engineers to respond with greater speed and accuracy.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How much does ChronicX cost?
ChronicX is a fixed cost per aircraft in the operator’s fleet. There is an unlimited number of users who are allowed access to the ChronicX tool. Access is controlled by customer Administrators.
ChronicX’s highest return on investment is the fast and accurate identification of repeat discrepancies on a fleet of aircraft, which reliability teams can raise work actions against to rectify the issues quickly while reducing the possibility of delays and cancellations. The identification process is automated; therefore, it saves a large amount of manual effort for reliability teams to compile and identify these repeat issues. -
How is ChronicX different?
ChronicX is a complete solution for the automatic identification of chronic aircraft defects, chronic resolution management, and defect analysis to improve aircraft safety and reliability. The platform has a high degree of accuracy using NLP (Natural Language Processing) to cluster similar crew and tech-ops generated defects together, based on description, and present to users on a timeline view for verification and action. Some operators send data every hour, so the information presented is frequently updated throughout the day.

Is ChronicX integrated?
ChronicX is a web-based application that is accessed through a unique URL. Users can access ChronicX using their company’s single sign-on credentials. SSO permits the user to use one set of login credentials to access the ChronicX tools (web & mobile) and integrated platform data that is shared with ChronicX (analytics dashboards).
