Run your repair station. Do not get run by your software.
CoreOp is a modern operating system for Part 145 repair stations and in house maintenance teams. It runs the shop from the moment an aircraft comes in the door to return to service. Audit ready on its own. Anyone can run it.

Most MRO software stores your shop. It does not run it.
The legacy vendors sell you a database. You fill it in. You chase forms. You chase parts. You chase paper. The software is a filing cabinet with a login screen, and it needs a specialist to run.
It takes a specialist to run.
One person knows the codes, the click paths, the exports. Nobody else can cover the desk. Vacations become outages. Turnover becomes a crisis.
The paperwork never ends.
Two hours after work stops, the paperwork starts. Sign off sheets, log entries, parts records, return to service. It should be a byproduct of the work, not a second job.
Audits are a scramble.
Every audit is a fire drill. Pull the records, cross reference the files, hope nothing is missing. The software you paid for does not produce the pack. You do.
You are chasing payment.
Work is done. The invoice is out. The money is still not in. Payments happen in a different tool that does not know what the work order says. Every collection call is a translation.
CoreOp runs the shop for you.
Intake pulls the aircraft in. Quoting builds itself from a standard job library. Work orders route to the right technician. Parts and 8130 tags travel with the job. Compliance and the due soon engine tell you what needs attention before the customer asks. Sign off produces the return to service record. Every action becomes an audit ready record on its own.
Induct an aircraft in seconds.
Enter the tail. CoreOp fills in make and model, owner and operator, prior visits, and open squawks. Add the arrival snapshot, capture new squawks with the ATA chapter, attach photos, and the visit is on the board.
Customer request intake mirrors the same flow so a flight department can submit a service request that lands as a structured visit in your queue, not an email you have to retype.

Know every aircraft and every customer.
Customers are flight departments, aircraft owners, and operators. Each carries a fleet, a service history, and every communication that ever left your shop. Open a customer and the last visit, the next visit, the open quote, the open invoice, and the outstanding squawks are on the same screen.
Aircraft records carry make, model, serial, engine and propeller identity, hours and cycles, and the full visit history. Notifications keep the owner and the operator in the loop without a call.

Run the whole floor.
A visit contains work orders. A work order contains task cards. A task card records labor, parts, sign off, and a required inspection item flag. Two signatures land where two are required. The board shows every open task by technician, by aircraft, by hangar.
Technician credentials, license types, and authorized ratings live in the app. The dispatcher does not have to remember who can sign for what. Labor time posts to the work order in real time from the tech at the aircraft.
Operational compliance runs alongside execution. Airworthiness directives, service bulletins, scheduled inspections, and life limited components are tracked per aircraft. The due soon engine surfaces what needs attention on the next visit, on the next month, and on the next year. Nothing sneaks up on a return to service.

Quote to paid, in one system.
Build a quote from your standard job library. Rate by task type. Add parts, labor, and travel. Send it. Take a deposit at approval. Invoice on completion. Collect on file. Every step is inside CoreOp. No exports. No stitched together processors.
Deposits, milestone billing, and progress invoices carry the context of the visit and the work orders they belong to. Your back office sees the same numbers your customer sees.

The back office that runs itself.
Parts and inventory carry serial and 8130 traceability from receiving through installation. Purchase orders push out to suppliers, receiving matches on the way in, and the tool crib knows what is out, what is due back, and what is calibrated.
Your capability list, your accounting sync, your payroll, and your reporting all sit next to the same visit and work order data. The audit readiness dashboard is not a report you produce. It is a live view of everything an auditor would ask for, always present.

Your business should not depend on one person.
The legacy systems demand a specialist. One person knows the codes, the workflows, the odd click paths. When that person takes a vacation or leaves, the shop stalls.
CoreOp is built the other way. A new hire runs the desk on day one. The screens read like an intake sheet, a work order, and an invoice. Nothing to memorize. Nothing to translate. Your business is not one person deep anymore.
Built this decade. By operators. Not owned by a conglomerate.
The vendors you know were built for the last generation of hangar. They were bought, resold, bundled, and slowed down. CoreOp is different by design.
Everything a Part 145 shop is held to, built in.
Nothing bolted on. Nothing to configure into existence. The standards a repair station has to meet are part of the daily flow, not a report you assemble the night before an audit.
RII and dual sign off
Required inspection items are flagged at the task level. Two authorized signatures are captured before the task closes. The record is on the task, not on a side sheet.
8130-3 traceability
Every part carries its 8130 tag from receiving through installation. Serial and lot travel with the work order. The audit pack pulls itself together.
Certificate capture
Technician licenses, authorized ratings, and expirations are stored in the app and enforced at sign off. No expired cert lands a signature.
Return to service
The RTS record is generated from the work performed, not typed after the fact. Every entry ties back to a task, a tech, and a sign off.
Exportable maintenance record
The maintenance record for every aircraft is a live document, not a folder. Any date range, any aircraft, exported and ready.
Audit readiness dashboard
A live view of what an auditor would ask for. What is missing, what is expiring, what needs attention. Not a report. A dashboard.

Straight answers.
- Is there a setup fee?
- Guided onboarding is included in the price you see on every tier.
- What about data migration from our current system?
- Guided onboarding covers the standard case: aircraft, customers, work in progress, and open receivables. For shops with unusual legacy data or a heavy history migration, we offer an optional paid done for you data import. There is no free migration promise. There is a clear, honest scope.
- How long until we are live?
- Most shops are running new visits inside a week. Complex parts catalogs and legacy history can extend the tail, but no shop waits months to open the door.
- How deep is the Part 145 support?
- RII and dual sign off, 8130 traceability, technician credentials, capability list, maintenance release and return to service, exportable records, and a live audit readiness dashboard. All built in. No add on modules.
- Do we need a specialist to run it?
- No. That is the point. A new hire runs the desk on day one. The dispatcher, the technician, the office, and the owner see the same screens.
- Can we change plans or cancel?
- Move between tiers at any time. Cancel anytime. Export your records at any time. The maintenance record for every aircraft is yours.
