Draft:Aviage Systems

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Aviage Systems is an avionics company founded in 2012, headquartered in Shanghai, China.[1] The company specializes in civil aviation electronics, offering avionics components and related services including product design, certification, repair, and consulting. Aviage Systems employs an Integrated Modular Avionics (IMA) concept, which creates an integrated framework allowing application software to be portable across a series of common hardware modules within an aircraft.[1]

Aviage Systems is a joint venture, with the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AVIC) and the General Electric Company (GE) each holding a 50% stake.[1] In addition to its headquarters in Shanghai, Aviage Systems has established two engineering centers in Toulouse, France, and Phoenix, Arizona, USA, expanding its research and development capabilities in Europe and North America.[1]

In 2015, Aviage Systems expanded into the United States by opening its first U.S. operation in Peoria, Arizona, which was announced by Governor Doug Ducey. This site focuses on developing modular computing platforms for civil avionics and was initially expected to create 40 high-wage jobs and involve an investment of nearly $5 million.[1]

In Europe, Aviage Systems established its subsidiary in Toulouse, France, seeking local partners to collaborate in the aerospace sector and furthering its R&D efforts.[2]

The company has been actively involved in certifications and innovations. Along with Donica, Aviage Systems is nearing FAA certification for a Quick Access Cockpit Voice Recorder (QACVR) for the Boeing 787, which is designed to improve flight management for airlines, especially in China.[3] Additionally, Aviage Systems has received FAA certification for maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) of Boeing 787 avionics, allowing it to enter the international MRO market.[4]
