| dc.description.abstract | One of the major challenges for airline operators is ensuring on time performance of flights. Flight dispatch reliability is affected by chains of activities. One of the factors affecting flight dispatch reliability is aircraft technical problem related with maintenance. For many operators, the division responsible for aircraft maintenance is authorized and certified repair and maintenance center called Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul Organization. Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul Supply Chain Integration and Inventory Management plays vital role to ensure on time performance of flights. Thus, the purpose of this study is to look at the role of Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul supply chain integration and inventory management in flight dispatch reliability. To examine the role of Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul supply chain integration and inventory management in flight dispatch reliability; a survey method was employed. 106 staffs were selected as the participants of the study. Closed ended and open ended questionnaire and interview were used as data gathering instruments. Descriptive statistics such as mean, standard deviation and frequency, correlation, and multiple linear regression analysis were employed in the study. The result showed that Maintenance, Repair and OverhaulSupply Chain integration and Inventory management played vital role to improve flight dispatch reliability and flight dispatch reliability is dependent on Ethiopian Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul supply chain functions integration; Inventory Management& and Supplier Relationship Management. The research result revealed that poor inventory management, poor material planning, system and physical inventory discrepancy are the major drivers of flight delay. The study also revealed that internal integration among Maintenance Repair and Overhaul Supply Chain functions and supplier relationship management plays vital role to improve dispatch reliability. | en_US |
