Vietnam Airlines has extended its contract with Epcor for APU maintenance, covering the A320s and 787s in its fleet.

Epcor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Air France Industries KLM Engineering & Maintenance (AFI KLM E&M).

Services will include the use of AFI KLM E&M’s predictive maintenance software ‘Prognos for APU’.

“Joint efforts in difficult times are proven to strengthen relationships. Therefore, we are proud Vietnam again chose us to be their maintenance partner for the forthcoming years,” said Epcor’s commercial director Bernard Kuiken.

“Part of the AFI KLM E&M network and as an airline MRO, we know what airlines value most, it is part of our DNA. Our ‘Adaptiveness’ mindset, a competitive offer and a close cooperation between Epcor and Vietnam’s engineering department contributed to the decision of Vietnam Airlines.”
