AOG Parts Sourcing demo

What the demo shows

Agents find, price and ship the part for a grounded aircraft; AOG desk buyers approve

Seven agents plan each AOG event: they confirm the part against the parts catalog and the MEL, ask every source in parallel, read each release certificate and trace before a quote is shown, price every route as the quote plus the hours of grounding, and recommend the lowest total cost. The AOG desk buyer asks back and approves the purchase order; the agents then book the next flight out, keep maintenance control's ETR live, re-plan if a leg slips, and track the core back to the supplier.
